The Physiology and Pathophysiology of the Skin Abstract The 5-HT3 receptor is a ligand-gated cation channel located in the central and peripheral nervous system; it has also been detected on a variety of other cells. In the periphery‚ it is found on autonomic neurons and on neurons of the sensory and enteric nervous system. In the CNS‚ the 5-HT3 receptor has been localized in the area postrema‚ nucleus tractus solitarii‚ nucleus vaudatus‚ nucleus accumbens‚ amygdala‚ hippocampus‚ entorhinal‚

CONCENTRATION AND DILUTION Physiology 1‚ Las Positas College Name: In science‚ concentration is a measure of the number of particles (solutes) in a given volume. If one room has 100 people in it‚ and a room of equal size has 50 people‚ one can say that the concentration of people in one room is twice that of the other. Quite simple‚ isn’t it? On a molecular level‚ consider whether you put one lump or two of sugar‚ or no sugar at all‚ in your coffee. If you use two lumps‚ you prefer twice

1.1 The skin is the largest organ of the body and it acts as a waterproof protector for all the internal organs and it consist of four distinct layers: The epidermis‚ the basement membrane zone‚ the dermis and the subcutaneous layer. The epidermis which is the outer layer and is a protective multi-layered self-renewing structure which varies in thickness depending on which part of the body it covers. The dermis is underneath the epidermis‚ this is a layer of connective tissue which provides the

Anatomy and physiology of the brain and spinal cord The brain is a spongy organ made up of nerve and supportive tissues. It is located in the head and is protected by a bony covering called the skull. The base‚ or lower part‚ of the brain is connected to the spinal cord. Together‚ the brain and spinal cord are known as the central nervous system (CNS). The spinal cord contains nerves that send information to and from the brain. The CNS works with the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS
