What are the axioms of similarity?
Similarity isreflexive: x is similar to xsymmetric: if x is similar to y then y is similar to x.transitive: if x is similar to y and y is similar to z then x is similar to z.
Why two polygon that are similar to a third polygon must be similar to each other?
You have to think that if two are similar, the other must also be similar in order for it to be similar
Are congruent tiangles similar?
All congruent shapes are similar, but not all similar shapes are congruent.
What is the difference similar to or similar with?
Similar with an object would be a side by side search for matching characteristics of objects, comparable. Similar to would be an overall sameness.
Are all cuboids similar?
Cuboids are not always similar.
Schwann cells are functionally similar to what?
oligodendrocytes
Schwann cells are functionally similar to?
Schwann cells are functionally similar to oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system. They both provide support and insulation to nerve fibers by forming a myelin sheath around them, which helps in the transmission of nerve signals. Schwann cells are found in the peripheral nervous system while oligodendrocytes are found in the central nervous system.
The myelin sheath that covers many CNS axons is formed by?
Oligodendrocytes
What are the four types of glial cells?
astrocytes, microglia, ependymal, and oligodendrocytes.
Which neuroglial cell is responsible for the production of myelin sheaths around axons in the central nervous system?
Oligodendrocytes are responsible for producing myelin sheaths around axons in the central nervous system.
Are oligodendrocytes unipolar bipolar or multipolar?
Oligodendrocytes are unipolar.Source: "Human Anatomy & Physiology" by Elaine N. Marieb and Katja Hoehn, ninth edition
What type of neuroglia forms the myelin sheath?
oligodendrocytes for C.N.S. and shcwann cells for P.N.S.
Which cells form myelin in the spinal cord?
They are called oligodendrocytes but in the peripheral nervous system you would call them schwann cells.
Which does not belong astrocytes neurons oligodendrocytes or microglia?
neurons
How are oligodendrocytes precursor cells identified?
Oligodendrocytes precursor cells are identified by them expressing a number of antigens. The develop during embryo-genesis and during the early stages of postnatal life.
What produce myelin in the brain and spinal cord?
Oligodendrocytes produce myelin in the brain and spinal cord. This process is known as myelination and the myelin will warp itself around the neurons.
What are the four types of neuroglia in the CNS?
The four types of neuroglia in the central nervous system (CNS) are astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and ependymal cells. Astrocytes provide structural support and regulate the chemical environment, oligodendrocytes produce myelin to insulate axons, microglia are the immune cells of the CNS, and ependymal cells line the ventricles and produce cerebrospinal fluid.
