Nerve Cells

2. a type of neuron which has two processes a axon and a dendrite
3. neuroglia cells which support and brace the neurons while attaching them to a nutrient supply
5. neuroglia cells which form a barrier between cerebrospinal fluid and tissue fluid bathing the cells of the CNS.
8. neuroglia cells which produce an insulating covering around cells called a myelin sheath
11. is a part of a neuron, has a large nucleus and cytoplasm
12. a type of neuron which has a small cell body and proximal and distal branches function as sensory neurons
13. the conducting region of the neuron, generating impulses and transmits them.
14. neuroglia cells which function like astrocytes but exclusively in the PNS.

1. these cells have a protective role transforming into a special macrophage which phagocytizes unwanted substances.
4. neuroglia cells which function like oligodendrocytes but exclusively in the PNS
6. one principle cell of nervous tissue which which support and wrap around the more delicate neurons
7. a type of neuron which has three or more processes, one axon the rest dendrites
9. the main receptive or input regions of a neuron
10. one principle cell of nervous tissue which are excitable and transmit electrical signals
