Astrocytes perform the function of all of the given options i.e., induce the formation of the blood-brain barrier, physically support neurons, are important in the repair of brain injuries and in neural formation, take up excess K from the brain ECF.

  • Both invertebrates and vertebrates have Astrocytes, a star-shaped cell kind of neuroglia, in their nervous systems.
  • Astrocytes can be separated into protoplasmic and fibrous kinds. In the central nervous system's white matter, myelinated nerve fibers are frequently surrounded by fibrous astrocytes.
  • Numerous cytoplasmic processes on astrocytes end on axons, neuronal cell bodies, blood vessels, and synaptic terminals.

b) The development of the blood-brain barrier is aided by the Astrocytes

c) Astrocytes support neurons physically and metabolically.

d) Astrocytes help in transfer of blood-borne materials to the neuron, and injury response of the brain and repair of brain injuries.

e) They also help with detoxification, migratory guidance, energy metabolism regulation and removal of excess K from brain ECF.

Which best explains how the collisions of materials in space contribute to the formation of layers in protoplanets?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:The best explanation is;

The materials undergo decay when they collide, which results in the heating and subsequent melting and rising of materials

Explanation: A protoplanet is an embryo formed in a protoplanetary disc which has passed through a melting phase that enables the formation layered interior

In protoplanets the effects of partial melting of the components due to heating produced by radioactive decay and  pressures from forces of gravity there is segregation of the melt and igneous composition such that the heavier melted metal can sink and be over laid by the lighter igneous rocks

Therefore, the best explanation is that the materials undergo decay when they collide, which results in the heating and subsequent melting and segregation by the sinking of the heavier melted materials and rising of the lighter igneous materials.
