What is the relationship between myelin and the white and gray matter of the brain?

Based on the reading last night, which type of neuroglial cell did I NOT mention in class yesterday? What is its function?

Most capillaries in the body are "leaky", allowing small molecules to enter and leave the bloodstream. This is not the case in the CNS. What is this specialized architecture called? What benefits does this provide the CNS? What could be a detriment to having this?

For years and years we taught that nervous tissue could not regenerate. How is this statement both true and false?

The nervous system provides 3 general functions: sensory, integrative, and motor. What are two types of motor functions in the PNS?
