Interneurons which are responsible for connecting one neuron to another. 

Schwann cells are a type of glial cell that are found in the peripheral system but function similarly to Oligodendrocytes which are found in the CNS. Motor neurons carry signals from the CNS to the target or effector organ i.e. muscle or skin, while Sensory neurons carry sensory messages from receptors to the CNS. The former typically have short dendrites to receive input and long axons to carry impulses while the latter tends to have longer dendrites and shorter axons.

The northwest moving Pacific Plate has moved across the 'hot spot' that created the Hawaiian Islands for millions of years. This movement has left the northwest trending island chain

Explanation:

If the Pacific Plate keeps moving across the hot spot I believe Hawaii will keep becoming a bigger island because the Pacific plates movement caused Hawaii to form.
