Table 7.2

Question 1

Also called Neurolemmocytes, produce the Myelin sheaths around the myelinated axons of the peripheral nervous system; surround all PNS axons (myelinated and nonmyelinated) to form a neurilemmal sheath, or sheath of Schwann

Answer 1

Schwann cells

Question 2

Support functions of neurons within sensory and on autonomic ganglia; also called ganglionic gliocytes

Answer 2

Satellite cells

Question 3

Form myelin sheath around central axons, producing “white matter” of the CNS

Answer 3

Oligodendrocytes

Question 4

Phagocytose pathogens and cellular debris in the CNS

Answer 4

Microglia

Question 5

Cover capillaries of the CNS and induce the blood-brain barrier; interact metabolically with neurons and modify the extracellular environment of neurons

Answer 5

Astrocytes

Question 6

Form the epithelial lining of brain cavities (ventricles) and the central canal of the spinal cord; cover tufts of capillaries to form choroid plexuses- structures that produces cerebrospinal fluid

Answer 6

Ependymal

Question 7

Located in PNS

Answer 7

Schwann cells, satellite cells,

Question 8

Located in CNS

Answer 8

Oligodendrocytes, microglia, astrocytes, ependymal cells
