Answer:

Answer is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Glial cells are regarded as the most abundant type of cells found in the central nervous system.

They can be described as the cells that, surround neurons, remove dead neurons, give support to the neurons by supplying them with nutrients and oxygen, and insulate neurons.

Examples off glial neurons are Schwann cells, satellite cells, microglia among others.
