Document Summary
Brain stem (2) autonomic nervous system (3) depression. Neuroglia cells:- the function of neuroglia cells is to ensure structural support, nourishment and neuron protection. There are five types of neuroglia cells: : oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, microglia schwann. Ependyma (1)neurons :- neurons are the fundamental functional units of the nervous system. They have several roles: : react to chemical and sensory stimuli, conduct the impulses, emit specific chemical regulators . The cell body: it is composed of the nucleus (containing dna and rna) and the cell membrane it also contains cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, nissl bodies, golgi apparatus, mitochondria, lysosomes and neurotubules. The cell processes are composed of the dendrites and cell axon. The dendrites carry impulses from another neuron to the cell body and impulses then travel down the axon. Axons can either be myelinated (an insulating sheath that aids impulse conduction) or nmyelinated. The neuron undergoes a variety of changes in order to transmit an impulse.
