Question

multiple choice question glial cells in the peripheral nervous system that surround somas of neurons in the ganglia, provide electrical insulation, and regulate the chemical environment of neurons are which of the following? microglial ependymal schwann satellite

Explanation:

Satellite glial cells in the peripheral nervous system surround neuron cell - bodies (somas) in ganglia, offer electrical insulation, and regulate the chemical environment of neurons. Microglial cells are immune - like cells in the central nervous system. Ependymal cells line the ventricles of the brain and central canal of the spinal cord. Schwann cells form myelin sheaths around axons in the peripheral nervous system but are not specifically those surrounding somas in ganglia for the described functions.

Answer:

D. Satellite
