Regeneration of axons occurs more readily in the CNS than in the PNS.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Regeneration of axons occurs more readily in the PNS than in the CNS. This is due to differences in the types of cells and tissues present, as well as differences in the environment and factors that affect axon growth and regeneration. In the PNS, Schwann cells and growth-promoting factors help support and guide axon regeneration, while in the CNS, inhibitory factors and other factors limit axon growth and regeneration.
