Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12DYB
Summary Introduction
To identify:
The principal glial cell types and also discuss the function of each type.
Concept introduction:
Neural tissue involves two types of cells: neurons and neuroglia. Neuroglia or glial cells are the supporting cells of the nervous system. These cells protect the neurons from damage and provide a protected environment.
