Answer:

Microglial cell

Explanation:

The microglial cells are macrophages that are in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) protecting it. This cells will phagocytize damaged neurons as when a person has Alzheimer as well as agents that can cause a potential damage to the central nervous system such as the meningitis virus. When the Microglial cells phagocytize they absorb the damaged neuron or antigen and then they destroy it.

Which of the following is maintained across the terminals of a battery?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Option D, both A and B

Explanation:

The potential difference is created across a battery (between its two terminal –one positive and the other one negative) when work is done to move a charge from one point to another. This potential difference is measured in volts. 1 volt is the potential difference between two points when one joule of potential energy is spent to move a charge of one coulomb from one point to the other.  

Voltage drop across a circuit is the amount of electric current lost due to resistance/ impedance with in the cables of the circuit.  

Hence, both potential difference and voltage drop occurs across the circuit,  

Option D is correct.
