Question 16

### Question 16

**Which statement incorrectly pairs the cell type with its function?**

- Satellite cell: forms myelin sheaths around neurons in the brain.
- Microglia: immune cell of the nervous system.
- Neuron: excitable cell capable of forming action potentials.
- Astrocyte: prevent toxins and other substances from entering the brain extracellular fluid.

### Question 17

**Neuron K is classified as a(n) ___ neuron.**

There is an accompanying diagram illustrating two neurons labeled NEURON K and NEURON L. Neuron K is depicted with cell structures labeled as follows:
- D: Dendrites
- C: Cell Body
- M: Myelin Sheath

Neuron L is depicted as connected to Neuron K with labels:
- A: Axon
- F: Synaptic Terminals
- G: Synapse

The diagram serves as a visual aid to help identify the specific parts and functions of the neurons for the given question.
