Answer Key : (a) -

(a)

I – True, II – true, III – false, IV – false.

Neuroglial cells are the packing and supporting cells found in brain and spinal cord. They are of three types, i.e., astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and microglia

Astrocytes are responsible for separation of two neurons by insulation. Oligodendrocytes are a category of glial cells that form myelin sheath around the axon

Microglia are phagocytic as well as scavengers. They engulf microbes and cellular debris. Nearly 50% of all brain cells are neuroglia

Schwann cells are the neuroglial cell, which are present in PNS

a)

Organ to organ connections

b)

Cell to cell connections

c)

Point to point connections

d)

Point to cell connections
