Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ependymal cells are a type of glial cell that line the ventricles of the brain and central canal of the spinal cord. They contribute to the production and circulation of cerebrospinal fluid, which protects and nourishes the central nervous system. They are not macrophages, neurons, or responsible for myelinating axons.
