INTRODUCTION Trigeminal nerve is the most largest and most complex of the 12 nerves. It supplies sensations to the face‚ mucous membrane and other structures of the head. It provides a motor nerve to the muscles of mastication and contains proprioceptive receptors. It consists of a large sensory and small motor nerve that exits through the pons at it junction with the middle cerebral peduncle. Laterally it passes to join the semilunar ganglion in the Meckel Cave. The nerve passes anteriorly to end

sciatic nerve‚ speed of transmission and degree of myelination can all have an effect on the sciatic nerve and therefore the peak contractile force of B. Marinus. The diameter of the axon in the sciatic nerve would impact how fast the action potential is conceived down the axon to the synaptic cleft and muscle (Firmin‚ L. 2014). If one of the toads had a smaller axon diameter it would allow for resistance to movement to occur due to friction. The diameter of the axon in the sciatic nerve would therefore

In the novel Girl‚ Stolen by April Henry‚ the main theme is "Do not act on impulse. Think things through." This means that don’t do the first thing that comes to mind. Throughout the book‚ the characters show multiple examples of that. One example of someone being an example of why to not act on impulse is Griffin. If he didn’t take Cheyenne’s step-mother‚ Danielle‚ car Griffin wouldn’t be in a position of kidnapping a teenage girl. "Look‚ it’s an accident you’re here. I just wanted the car‚ not

There are three main nerves in your hand radial nerve‚ median nerve‚ and ulnar nerve. Each one of these gives movement and feeling to different areas of the hand. The ulnar nerve is one of the three main nerves in your arm. It travels from your neck down into your hand. The most common place for this nerve is behind the inside part of the elbow. The radial nerve descends down the arm with in the triceps with in the upper arm. Then moves down the arm within the humerus also known as the radial

concern about their body weight. Impulse-control disorders: psychological disorders in which people repeatedly engage in behaviors that are potentially harmful‚ feeling unable to stop themselves and experiencing a sense of desperation if their attempts carry out the behaviors are thwarted. Before they act on their impulses‚ these individuals experience tension and anxiety that they can relieve only by following through on their impulses. After acting on their impulses they experience a sense of pleasure

experiment is to examine the results of stimulation on a frog’s sciatic nerve by looking at its compound action potential‚ the conduction velocity‚ and by quantifying the total and absolute refractory period between the nerve at room and cold temperature. An oscilloscope‚ preamplifier‚ and stimulator were used to stimulate the frog’s nerve located in the nerve chamber. Threshold voltage was determined by stimulating the nerve at increasing voltages until a compound action potential resulted. Absolute

both empathy and sympathy in the reader by posing questions which induce consideration of an alternate standpoint as well as a feeling of helplessness and vulnerability. This vulnerability is denoted firstly by the title: ‘Crow’ has lost his ‘nerve’‚ leaving him devoid of faith in himself and therefore acutely aware of human judgement; as ‘his brain [had] slip[ed]’ he had become susceptible to the influence of his intrinsic condemnation. This theme of vulnerability and loss of character is indispensable
