Biology
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
4 0
The presence of a homologous structure suggests common ancestry, and further suggests that the nearest common ancestor of two organisms had the trait which is homologous. Comparison of several modern organisms with different variations of the same homologous structure can suggest what the original ancestor's actual characteristics were, and comparison of the structure in different organisms can also suggest which organisms are more or less closely related

solong [7]

ANSWER:

Brain cells that are neither neurons nor glia, but which are capable of dividing and then differentiating into neurons or glia, are called NEURAL STEM CELLS.

EXPLANATION:

Neural stem cells are undifferentiated cells originating in the central nervous system.

Neural stem cells (NSCs) have the potential to give rise to the radial glial progenitor cells that grow and differentiate into neurons and glial cells.

NSCs have an important role during development producing the enormous diversity of neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes in the developing CNS.

A NEURON (nerve cell) is a specialized cell that conveys electrochemical impulses throughout the body.

provide support for and insulation between them.

GLIAL CELLS are the most abundant cell types in the central nervous system. Types of glial cells include oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, ependymal cells, Schwann cells, microglia, and satellite cells.
