Neurons conduct electrical impulses in the brain.

Neuroglia are cells that support the neurons. These cells undergo mitosis where neurons do not.

Brain tumors are formed from neuroglia cells because they mitosis.

What are the Difference of neurons and neuroglia cells?

Neurons are conducting cells in the nervous system and neuroglia do not conduct, but are helper cells to the neurons.

Do neurons or neuroglia release neurotransmitters?

Neurons release neurotransmitters, not neuroglia. Neuroglia, also known as glial cells, primarily support and protect neurons in various ways, but they do not release neurotransmitters like neurons do.

Does Neuroglia transmit nerve impulses?

No, neuroglia do not transmit nerve impulses. Neuroglia are support cells of the nervous system that help to nourish, protect, and maintain the environment of neurons. Nerve impulses are transmitted by neurons.

Neuroglia do not transmit impulses.?

Neuroglia, or glial cells, play crucial supportive roles in the nervous system but do not transmit electrical impulses like neurons do. They maintain homeostasis, provide structural support, and facilitate communication between neurons. Additionally, neuroglia are involved in the repair and protection of nervous tissue, making them essential for overall brain and nerve function. Their functions are vital for the proper operation of neurons and the nervous system as a whole.
