Answer;

Glial cells

Step-by-step explanation;

  • The nervous system is made up of neurons and glia. Neurons are specialized cells that are capable of sending electrical as well as chemical signals
  • Glial cells or neuroglia are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system.
  • Glial cells are cells that provide support functions for the neurons by playing an information processing role that is complementary to neurons.
