Torsion- twisting of the embryo along the left-right axis (similar to the twist of the body when a golfer swings at the ball). MOST prominent in the 48-hour chick embryo Flexion- bending of the embryo along the anterior-posterior axis. In amniotes the tip of the head bends towards the heart. Types of flexion: cranial flexion‚ cervical flexion‚ pontine flexure‚ dorsal flexure‚ caudal flexure. ^Cervical flexure- ventral bend in embryo at transition between myelencephalon and spinal cord ^Dosal Flexure-

Cell Wall- The cell wall is a rigid structure outside the cell membrane that supports and protects the cell. The cell wall is made of tough cellulose fibers and other materials made by the cell. Analogy- In a restaurant the building itself supports the restaurant. It is often made of wood or concrete. Cell Membrane- The cell membrane is a structure that forms the outer boundary of the cell and allows only certain materials to move into and out of the cell. Food‚ oxygen and water move into

Joints and Movements The Joints Definition: A joint (articulation) is point of contact between bones or between bone and cartilage. Joint Classifications Joints are classified by: The degree of movement they allow The structure of the joint The three types of joints that we will look at are: 1. Fibrous joints 2. Cartilaginous joints 3. Synovial joints Fibrous Joints These joints are also called "fixed" or "immoveable" joints‚ because they do not move. These joints have no joint cavity

Sample Physiology MCQs 1. Compound action potentials can be graded responses. True 2. The sciatic nerve contains axons of both afferent and efferent neurones. True 3. The absolute refractory period of an action potential is the period after an initial stimulus when it is impossible to evoke another action potential with a second stimulus. True 4. The refractory periods of individual axons are important as they dictate the maximal action potential firing rate of a neuron. True 5. Compound action
