4During migration, neurons migrate along the [blank_start]radial[blank_end] [blank_start]glia[blank_end] and the cortical layers develop [blank_start]outward[blank_end].
- Aradial
- Bglia
- Coutward
5During maturation, how does a neuron cell find a target cell for synaptogenesis?
- ATransport proteins move the neuron closer to a target cell.
- BThe axon develops a growth cone which sends out filopodia to detect a target cell.
- CThe dendritic spines guide the neuron to the nearest available cell.
- DThe neuron is already attached to a target cell during maturation.
