There are two types of neuroglia cells: macroglia (bigger glial cells) and microglia (small glial cells).Astrocytes are star-shaped cells that emit a variety of processes. Astrocytes give mechanical support to neurons as well as restoration of injured nervous tissue. Oligodendrocytes resemble tree cells in appearance. This cell type has cytoplasm, a rounded nucleus, mitochondria, microtubules, and glycogen. These generate myelin sheaths around the axons in the CNS. Hence option B is correct.
