Classifications of reflexes A) Primitive reflexes and genetic sub-programs 1. Reflex responses to light touch: Light touch produces a variety of reflex responses‚ depending upon the area stimulated and the age of the individual. The motor responses are most marked in the early months of life. Grasp reflex (palmar and plantar): Light touch of the palm or sole produces reflex flexion of the fingers or toes. The most effective way to elicit the reflex is to

OBJECTIVE To determine antiseptics evaluation by the filter paper disc method INTRODUCTION An antiseptic is a substance which inhibits the growth and development of microorganisms. Antiseptics are a diverse class of drugs which are applied to skin surfaces or mucous membranes for their anti-infective effects. This may be either bacteriocidal or bacteriostatic. Their uses include cleansing of skin and wound surfaces after injury‚ preparation of skin surfaces prior to injections or surgical procedures

Laboratory Long report. Electronic laboratory practice Abstract: The aim of this laboratory was to make us familiar with how to use the different types of electronic equipment and how to accurately use them to make measurements. The equipment used in this laboratory included: (i) the signal generator which was used to supply the power used in the various procedures‚ (ii) The oscilloscope which was used to view and record the waves produced from the AC currents and then make relevant calculations

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

Format of a Laboratory Report Your laboratory report should be divided into the following sections. Be sure to label each section! I. Introduction A brief statement of the purpose of the experiment. This is also a good place to show relevant structures and chemical equations. II. Experimental Procedure A brief outline of the experimental procedure. Be particular about reporting the amounts of materials used and any modifications made to the original procedure (avoid simply

ENZYMES LABORATORY REPORT Introduction The utilization of any complex molecule for energy by an organism is dependent on a process called hydrolysis. Hydrolysis breaks complex molecules into simpler molecules using water. Similarly‚ the process that is the reverse of this is called dehydration synthesis‚ which removes water from simpler molecules. However‚ because hydrolysis occurs very slowly‚ living organisms use biochemical’s called enzymes to speed up the reaction. In this lab exercise

Introduction A nerve is an enclosed bundle of axons found in the peripheral nervous system (Easton 13). It is the pathway for electrochemical nerve impulses‚ which pass along axons of the peripheral organs. A neuron is a cell in the nervous system which plays many critical tasks like receiving sensory signals from the external and internal environments. Moreover‚ neurons join together these sensory responses to produce and transmit motor responses as a result of changes in membrane permeability

“Vasile Goldis” University Cranial Malformations Cranial defects are some of the most serious birth defects affecting children today‚ due to the potential for these birth defects to cause significant damage to the skull and brain. One of the most common types of cranial defects is a congenital malformation called craniosynostosis. In children born with craniosynostosis‚ the cranial sutures close earlier than normal‚ causing an abnormal growth of the child’s skull. Cranial sutures are the joints separating
