Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the term ganglia with the most closely related description given below:
Positive feedback
Connects initial segment to cell body
Sensory information
Monitor position/movement of joints
Myelin
One dendrite
Neuron cell bodies in PNS
Blood brain barrier (BBB)
Side branches of axons
Skeletal muscle cells
Introduction:
The ganglia are defined as a cluster of the neurons or their cell bodies. They are composed of the dendritic structures and the cell bodies, which are connected. They often form plexus by forming connections with other ganglia.
