Question

Which of the following is/are true for Glial Cells? (Select all that apply.) Neurolemmocytes (Schwann cells) myelinate axons in the central nervous system. Astrocytes are important for forming the blood-brain barrier. Oligodendrocytes myelinate axons in the peripheral nervous system. The microglia are macrophage-like immune cells in the central nervous system. Satellite cells produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the ventricles of the brain
