Q

Which part is the interpreting centre of a neuron?

A

Cell body.
As it contains nucleus,
# It has all organelles except centrioles. Its absent in mature neuron as it helps in division but neurons do not divide in mature form(lack of regeneration).

Q

In ________synapse there is no synaptic cleft.

A

Voltage synapse.
Since the pre- and post- synaptic membrane are fused.
So there’s NO synaptic delay, NO chance of synaptic fatigue.

28
Q

Do axons of CNS have neorolemma?

A

Axons of CNS have NO NEUROLEMMA.
Because myelin sheath over the axons of CNS is established by oligodandrocyte…while neurolemma is established by neurolemocytes/schwann cells

29
Q

Which neuroglial cells are mesodermal in origin?

A

Microglial cells.

  • they are monocyte derived.
  • they are tissue macrophages(phagocyte) of CNS.
  • cells of immune system.
30
Q

_________cells form BBB(blood brain barrier).

A

Astrocytes.(largest neuroglial cells).

31
Q

In PNS myelinated sheath is established by

A

Neurolemocytes or Schwann cells.
They lay whorls of membrane around the axon and ONLY THE INNER membrane of neurolemocytes is MADE OF “SPHINGOLIPIDS” (lipid bilayer).FINAL layer with cytoplasm and nucleus forms NEUROLEMMA.

32
Q

In CNS, myelin sheath is formed by ____________.

A

Oligodendrocytes.(type of neuroglial cells).
