Neural Tissue, Neurons, & Reflex arc notes Quizizz

What are the two kinds of cells in neural tissue?

• Neurons and neuroglia

• somatic and sex cells

• Neurons and sex cells

• fat cells and neuroglia

____________ (glial cells, “nerve glue”) are cells that support neurons.

• Neurons

• Neuroglia

• Somatic cells

• Sex cells

_________________ fill spaces, structurally support, protect, and insulate neurons. These cells do not generate or conduct nerve impulses.

• Neurons

• Neuroglia

• Somatic cells

• Sex cells

______________ = myelinated nerves (white in color)
