Match the names of the cells in column B with the function they perform, shown in column A. Column A Column B (1) line the central cavity of the brain (b) ependymal cells (2) form myelin in the CNS (d) oligodendrocytes (3) form myelin in the PNS (f) Schwann cells (4) remove neurotransmitters in the CNS (c) microglial cells (5) regulate ionic composition of the fluid around neurons in the CNS (a) astrocytes (6) CNS phagocytes (e) satellite cells

Step 1
So, (1) matches with (b). (2) Form myelin in the CNS: This function is performed by oligodendrocytes, which produce the myelin sheath around axons in the central nervous system. So, (2) matches with (d). (3) Form myelin in the PNS: This function is performed by Show more…

Fill in each blank below with the correct name of neuroglia. A. forms the myelin sheath around neuron fibers located in the central nervous system. B. are cells that line the cerebral spinal fluid-filled cavities in the spinal cord and the brain. C. surrounds neuron cell bodies located in the peripheral nervous system. D. acts as a phagocytic cell in the central nervous system. E. forms the myelin sheath around neuron fibers located in the peripheral nervous system. F. involved in controlling the chemical environment around neurons in the central nervous system.
