Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glial cells are non-neuronal cells that provide support and nutrition to neurons. They play a crucial role in helping to meet the metabolic needs of neurons. Synapses, excitable cells (which include neurons), Schwann cells, and oligodendrocytes are all directly involved in the transmission of signals in the nervous system, but do not contribute to the metabolic needs of the neurons.
