The neural cells responsible for the analysis of sensory inputs and coordination of motor outputs are (a) neuroglia, (b) interneurons, (c) sensory neurons, (d) motor neurons.

Multiple ChoiceMore than one choice may apply.Neuroglia present in large numbers in areas of bacterial infection in the brain are most likelya. oligodendrocytes.b. astrocytes.c. ependymal cells.d. microglia.

What is the basis for the functional classification of neurons?

Two major cell groups make up the nervous system—neurons and supporting cells such as astrocytes and Schwann cells. Which are 'nervous' cells? Why? What are the major functions of the other cell group?

Phagocytic cells in nervous tissue of the CNS are (a) astrocytes, (b) ependymal cells, (c) oligodendrocytes, (d) microglia.

Why can't most neurons in the CNS be replaced when they are lost to injury or disease?
