Question

neuroglial cells do not a) stimulate the neurons b) protect and support neurons c) function as insulating cells d) included in nucleated cells​

Answer 1

Glial (Neuroglial) cells do not conduct nerve impulses but, instead, support, nourish, and protect the neurons. Glial cells are far more numerous than neurons and, unlike neurons, are capable of mitosis.

Answer 2

Answer:

Neuroglial cells do not stimulate the neurons. The correct option is a)

Explanation:

• About 90% of the cells within the CNS are not neurons but neuroglia or glial cells.
• Glial cells do not initiate or conduct nerve impulses, rather they help to transfer nutrients from the blood to the neurons, form myelin sheaths around peripheral axons and also around the axons of the CNS, and also protect and support neurons.
• They also phagocytose foreign and degenerated materials. Despite their large numbers, glial cells comprise about the half volume of the brain. These glial cells have a nucleus.
• They do not release any neurotransmitters, so they cannot stimulate the neurons.

Hence, the correct option is a)
