How are common denominator and common multiple alike?
Common denominators are common multiples of two or more denominators.
How are common multiples and common denominators the same and different?
Common multiples and common denominators can be found using the same process. They differ in their function. Common denominators are common multiples that are functioning as denominators.
How are a common denominator and common multiple different?
Common denominators are common multiples that are being used as denominators.
What is the difference between common factors and greatest common factors?
The greatest common factor is the largest of the common factors.
How are common denominator any common multiple alike?
Common denominators are created by finding the common multiples of unlike denominators.
What are the four types of glial cells?
astrocytes, microglia, ependymal, and oligodendrocytes.
What are the four types of neuroglia in the CNS?
Astrocytes, Microglia, Ependymal cells, and Oligodendrocytes
Which does not belong astrocytes neurons oligodendrocytes or microglia?
neurons
Four types of neuroglia in the cns?
The four types in the CNS are microglia, astrocytes, ependymal, and oligodendrocytes. *microglia= phagocytes *astrocytes= form the blood brain barrier *ependymal= produce CSF (cerebral spinal fluid) *oligodendrocytes= form the myelin sheath that wraps around the axon
What term does not belong Astrocytes Neurons Oligodendrocytes or microglia?
Neurons, because all the rest are glial cells.
What are the types of neuroglia?
There are 6 different types CNS: astrocytes, microglia, ependymal, and oligodendrocytes, PNS: satellite cells, and schwann cells
Specialized supporting cells in the CNS?
The neuroglia ("nerve glue"), or glial cells, which in the CNS include Astrocytes, Ependymal cells, Microglia, and Oligodendrocytes.
What neuroglial cell has phagocytes?
Microglia function as phagocytes.
Cells located between neurons in the CNS?
The two types of cells in the CNS are neurons and glia. There are many types of glia, including oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and microglia, each with different functions. In general, glia support neuronal function.
Are the monocytes astrocytes microglia and oligodenrocytes all associated with Glia?
yes
What are four types of neuralgia found in CNS?
astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocyte, & ependymal cells
What is gliosis in the brain?
The glia is the "glue of the brain" as stated above (consisting of astrocytes, microglia and oligodendrocytes), however gliosis is the brains form of a scar. Astrocytes have primarily structural and nutritional roles. They are more resilient and are a prominent component in the reaction to injury. Through proliferation and hypertrophy they create the brain's analogy of a scar (gliosis). Gliosis may result from a variety of insults to the CNS.
