The other type of cell is neuroglia, or glial, cell. The word “neuroglia” means “nerve glue.” These cells are nonconductive and provide a support system for the neurons.
Detailed explanation-2: -The basic unit of communication in the nervous system is the nerve cell (neuron). Each nerve cell consists of the cell body, which includes the nucleus, a major branching fiber (axon) and numerous smaller branching fibers (dendrites).
