C. cerebrum.

D. cerebellum.

E. peripheral organs.

5. Satellite cells:

A. surround the Schwann cells.

B. enclose the oligodendrocytes.

C. are sensory neurons in ganglia.

D. surround sensory neurons in different ganglia.

E. surround the peripheral axons.

ANSWERS

Correct Answer: C. Perineurium. Connective tissue cells are joined by tight

junctions to form a blood–nerve barrier.

Correct Answer: B. Intervals between myelinating cells. The nodes of Ranvier
are the intermodal segments and represent the length in the neuron covered by
the myelinating cell.

Correct Answer: D. A rapid impulse conduction in large myelinated axons. In
saltatory conduction, the impulse jumps from node to node, resulting in fast
transmission of an impulse.

Correct Answer: A. Dorsal root ganglia. These are located on each side of the
spinal cord.

Correct Answer: D. Surround sensory neurons in different ganglia. Satellite

cells provide structural support for the neurons.
