looked empty but didn’t know what to do and from out of nowhere a meteor fell from the sky. So Atlas amazed went to see what had happen when he saw his friend Adam come out of the meteor he then rushed toward him to greet him. Adam had come from outer space to help Atlas make Critters. But Atlas was tired of all the work he had done so instead he let Adam do the job. So Adam headed out and went on making animals. First came the fishes but they had legs and could walk on land. They also created tides

Upper motor neurons and lower motor neurons act to carry nerve impulses from the brain out to the muscles in the body. Upper motor neurons supply input to the lower motor neurons. They do this by either synapsing directly to lower motor neurons‚ or by synapsing with a local circuit neuron‚ which then synapses with a lower motor neuron. The upper motor neurons originate in the motor region of the cerebral cortex or brainstem. The neurons from the cerebral cortex are important for planning‚ initiating

account of the structure and properties of Biological membranes. Include details of the modifications of membrane structure found in different specialised cells and organelles½ The Fluid Mosaic model was codified by Singer and Nicolson in 1972. It describes the structure and properties of the cell membrane very simply. Every membrane consists of a Phospholipid bilayer. This is simply two layers of phospholipid molecules that come together due to their unique properties. The heads of the phospholipids

Neurons are perhaps the most important part of the human body‚ and while they are a vital part to our lives on a daily basis‚ many don’t recognize the significance they play‚ and have little to no idea how they work. In order to demonstrate just how important these neurons are to our survival‚ I will show you why and how these remarkable‚ microscopic pieces work. In doing so‚ you’ll be able to fully understand one of the human bodies most critical biological features. Neurons are the essential tools

Proposition: Mirror neurons do not function normally in psychopaths. I think this is a plausible statement. Psychopathy is defined by several traits such as disinhibition‚ inability to demonstrate empathy‚ and dominance. This paper will focus on the inability to demonstrate empathy in psychopathic individuals and mirror neuron dysfunction as a possible cause for this. Mirror neurons are neurons which fire not only when an individual completes an action but when the individual observes another

What is an action potential? To put it simply‚ it is a message that is sent down the nervous line. The message is written and is sent from the central nervous system. That message is addressed to muscles or glands. This essay will explain what happens before‚ during‚ and after an interneuron action potential. To accurately define an action potential‚ it is part of the incredible course of events that occur during the firing of a neuron. When a neuron is not firing signals‚ the interior of the

a quick look at the features of Active Directory native to three different Windows operating systems. First‚ this section will examine Windows 2000 Advanced Server‚ Windows XP‚ and then Windows 2003 Server. This section will also look at the active directory features of native to all three Windows operating systems. Why would a security‚ network‚ or system administrator want to have Active directory on their network of computers? The simple answer is that Active Directory offers a higher level of

formation of an action potential can be divided into five steps. (1) A stimulus from a sensory cell or another neuron causes the target cell to depolarize toward the threshold potential. (2) If the threshold of excitation is reached‚ all Na+ channels open and the membrane depolarizes. (3) At the peak action potential‚ K+ channels open and K+ begins to leave the cell. At the same time‚ Na+ channels close. (4) The membrane becomes hyperpolarized as K+ ions continue to leave the cell. The hyperpolarized
