Cells that cause and spread cancer.
- B.
Specialized cells that carry impulses, these cells don't usually divide.
- C.
Cells that carry nutrients to the brain.
- 10.Star Shaped cells that make up 1/2 the volume of the brain. They are webliked projections from relatively tight junctions around brains capillaries, resulting in a structure/designed commonly called BBB.
- A.
BBB, Blood Brain Barrier
- B.
Astrocytes
- C.
Microglia
- 11.Differential rates of molecule passage into the brain, due to size and chemical makeup, This acts to stabilize the chemicals enviroment of the brain, in other areas of the body there is fluxunation of chemical compounds
- A.
BBB, Blood Brain Barrier
- B.
Astrocytes
- C.
Microglia
- 12.What can't pass through the BBB?
- A.
Glucose and O2
- B.
Essential amino acids
- C.
Some electrolytes (na, Cl, K)
- D.
Various Fat soluble moleculs, including alcohol, nicotine, certain drugs, and anesthetics
- E.
Most antibiotics/ medications, urea, and certain toxins
- 13.BBB is poorly developed in infants hence potential for damage of brain disorders.
- A.
True
- B.
False
- 14.The BBB actually protects brain tumors from chemotherapy.
- A.
True
- B.
False
- 15.Small cells, long processes, modified white blood cells, usually stationary but may migrate to site of injury and engulf bacteria, also called brain macrophages
- A.
Ependymal
- B.
Oligodendrocytes
- C.
Microglia
- 16.Epithelial cells that line ventricles (cavities) of brain and central canal of spinal cord; these cells play an active role in production of cerebrospinal fluid, cilia help cirulate.
- A.
Ependymal
- B.
Microglia
- C.
Oligodendrocytes
- 17.Smaller cells, fewer processes, similar to astrocytes, lends support by forming protective rows between neurons in brain and spinal cordl; also produce (insulating) coverings around ending of neurons of CNS called myelin sheaths.
- A.
Ependymal
- B.
Oligodendrocytes
- C.
Microglia
- 18.Cells that are similar to oligedendrocytes except only found in the PNS are called

Neurons
- B.
Dendrites
- C.
Schwann
- D.
Axons
- 19.Function in impulse conduction- also called nerve cells, typically large cells.
- A.
Neurons
- B.
Structures
- C.
Axons
- D.
Schwann
- 20.Basic characteristics of a neuron is long lived, can not reproduce themselves, and very high metabolic activity and can not survice longer then about 7 minutes without oxygen.
- A.
True
- B.
False
- 21.Structure of a neuron consist of ___________and ________________.
