Inside our brain‚ there is this system called the human nervous system. There are two types of nervous systems: the peripheral and central nervous systems. The peripheral nervous system includes the nerves connecting the central nervous system to the rest of the body. It has two subdivisions: somatic nervous system and autonomic nervous system. Somatic nervous system controls skeletal muscles and interacts with the external environment. An example is walking through a park. You are using your motor

A refractory period is a period of time where the cells are resistant to depolarisation. There are 3 different refractory periods‚ firstly the absolute refractory period which is the part of the cardiac cycle where no further depolarisation can take place. Secondly it is the relative refractory period where depolarisation of the cells can occur but only if the stimulus is strong enough‚ and finally there is the diminished refractory period where the cells are still resistant to depolarisation but

The nervous system is made up of millions of neurons and interconnected nerves that are comparable to a wiring system. The nervous system is composed of the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The nervous system functions like a corporate giant. The CEO is the leader in the CNS and the officers and delegates are the PNS. The CNS gives the commands and the PNS follows the commands. The Central Nervous System The central nervous system (CNS) is

I.Abstract Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is an auto-immune disease that is rare but can lead to paralysis of limbs and the diaphragm. Ventilatory failure is commonly seen in patients with progressing diseases. The causes of GBS syndrome is unknown‚ however a few culprits are being studied. The most common explanation for GBS is the demyelination of the peripheral nervous system. Other causes in question include flu vaccinations and certain bacteria such as Campylobacter Jejuni. Patients diagnosed
