Cell Jobs/ link nerve picture

• Nancy’s Non-Neural Family- The neuroglia family is the glue to the neurons and is also a great support and protection force.

Amanda Astocyte- She covers the surface of the neuron and blood vessel slide. She helps provide structural support and helps form the blood/brain barrier. Also she regulates what substances from the blood reach the neurons

Carl Ciliated ependymal- He lines the ventricles of the brain bowling alley to help move the cerebrospinal fluid that keeps everything running smoothly.

Erika Ependymal- Carl’s partner, On the surface of the choroid plexus secretes the cerebrospinal fluid.

Marcus Microglia- He phagocytizes dead nervous tissue, microorganisms and other foreign matter. This helps keep the fair clean for all its customers.

Olga Oligodencrocyte- She is the extension from the Myelin sheath around each axon within the peripheral nervous system. She helps all parts of the park under control.

Sam Schwann- He forms the myelin sheath around each axon within the peripheral nervous system. This provides protection for the riders, so they are safe from harm.

Sydney Satellite- Neuron cell bodies with ganglia are surrounded by her. She also provides protection to the rides and the riders.

• Niall’s Neural Family- This family receives stimuli and conducts action potentials.

Unipolar Ugo- He is a single fiber that extends from the cell and divides into two branches, one connected to the peripheral body part and works as a dendrite, the other entering the brain or spinal cord and functions as an axon.

Bipolar Beatrice- She has only two nerve fibers one, an axon and the multipolar neuron.
