    Study Notes

    Neurons

    • Bipolar neurons have a single dendrite that arises opposite the origin of the axon and are found in olfactory mucosa, retina, and inner ear as receptor neurons for sensation.

    Peripheral Nerve Fibers

    • Type A fibers (myelinated) are 4-20 μm in diameter and conduct impulses at high velocities (15-120 m/second).
    • The entire nerve is surrounded by a thick layer of dense connective tissue called epineurium.
    • Nerve fibers are grouped into distinct bundles, surrounded by a layer of connective tissue called perineurium.
    • The space between individual nerve fibers is filled with loose connective tissue called endoneurium, containing fibrocytes, macrophages, and mast cells.
    • Nerves are richly supplied by intraneural blood vessels that form numerous anastomoses.

    Neuroglia (Gliacells)

    • CNS tissue contains several types of non-neuronal, supporting cells called neuroglia.
    • There are at least 10 neuroglia for every neuron, occupying about 50% of the total volume of nerve tissue.
    • Neurons cannot exist or develop without neuroglia.

    Skeletal Muscle Cells (Fibers)

    • Muscle fibers are long and cylindrical in shape.
