The nervous system is composed of what two main classes of cells? What are they? correct answersNeurons and glial cells 
 
-- neurons = the basic signaling units that transmit information through the nervous system 
 
-- glial cells = non neural cells that provide structural support and electrical insulation to neurons. Glia are involved in metabolic functions, repair and protection of neurons, and improve conduction of signals

Which of the following does NOT correctly match a term with its description? 
Depolarization --- Period during which sodium ions diffuse out of the neuron due to a change in 
permeability for these ions. 
Repolarization --- The interior of the cell becomes more negative due to the opening of potassium ion 
gates. 
Relative refractory period --- An exceptionally strong stimulus can trigger a response (action potential). 
Absolute refractory period --- Period during which the neuron cannot respond...
