Abstract Paralysis of a facial nerve (i.e. CN VII) is frequently diagnosed as Bell’s palsy. Patients who suffer from Bell’s palsy often experience unilateral loss of facial muscle function which presents as drooping of the eyelid and corner of mouth‚ impaired taste‚ hypersensitive hearing‚ and general loss of facial muscle function on the affected side of the face. Loss of nerve function occurs as a result of inflammation at the geniculate ganglion which causes nerve damage and may eventually lead

over would trigger the onset of glaucoma. When this pressure rises‚ it presses on and causes harm to the optic nerve. Any damage to the optic nerve would prevent visual information from being sent to the brain and therefore visual loss occurs. The exact pathophysiology of glaucoma is not fully comprehended but experts believe that the rise in pressure on the retina causes cells and nerve ganglions in the retina to die. Moreover‚ compression of small blood vessels occur in the retina and this deprives

Light Transmission Through Liquids With Different Viscosities Introduction Aim This experiment investigates the effects of different liquid viscosities on light transmission. The results of this experiment could greatly benefit marine biologists or other marine scientists. This would help them figure out how their flashlights would work in different water conditions in the ocean. Background Research Spectrophotometers are devices that measure the amount of light absorbed by a certain liquid
