The main factor that leads to the damage of optic nerve is elevated pressure in the eye. The optic nerve is the main visual nerve of the eye. It transmits the images we see back to the brain for interpretation. The shape and tone of the eye is maintained by a pressure within the eye‚ which ranges between 8 mm and 22 mm of mercury. When this pressure is too low‚ the eye becomes softer‚ while an elevated pressure causes the eye to become harder. The optic nerve is the most susceptible part of the eye

Copper vs. Fiber Modern telecommunication networks rely primarily on two types of cable. Older copper cables have been replaced in many cases by fiber optic "light pipes‚" first in undersea cables and major intercity trunks‚ and later directly to many homes and businesses. Principles Copper cables carry information as an electrical signal‚ which may be digital‚ as in phone lines‚ or analogue‚ as in audio speaker cable. In optical fibers‚ however‚ data is carried digitally by light from a laser

there have been numerous inventions and discoveries. The latest one has been that of Fiber optic cables‚ which have gained more respect in the market than the copper cables. These cables are widely used in offices or residential areas. Copper cables transmit information through electrical signals. It has been used as a speaker system wire‚ telephone wire‚ computer cable wire etc. for over years now. Optical fiber comprises of plastic or glass strands to transmit data or information digitally with

ANIMAL FIBER Animal fibers are largely those which cover mammals such as sheep‚ goats and rabbits with well-known examples such as alpaca‚ merino‚ wool‚ fur and mohair. Animal fibers are natural fibers that consist largely of particular proteins. Instances are silk‚ hair/fur (including wool) and feathers. The animal fibers used most commonly both in the manufacturing world as well as by the hand spinners are wool from domestic sheep and silk. Also very popular are alpaca fiber and mohair

Dietary Fiber Dietary Fiber is the parts of plant that resist digestive enzymes. A few definitions of dietary fibers are nondigestible carbohydrates and lignin that are intrinsic and intact in plants. nondigestible carbohydrates and lignin that are intact in plants. Another definition is the edible parts of plants or analogous carbohydrates that are resistant to digestion and absorption in the human small intestine‚ with complete or partial fermentation in the large intestine.

Synthetic polymers offer more possibilities‚ since they can be designed with molecular structures that impart properties for desired end uses. All fibers are ploy-something or polymers. That means they are long strings of repeating chemical elements. Some fibers come from ground plants that synthesize connected units of cellulose

Opening: Fiber helps keep the baby’s bowel at regular intervals and keeps the baby feeling full between meals. However‚ high fiber foods are not the best dish on the menu‚ so many children do not get as much as they need. Parents can help increase the amount of fiber in the baby’s diet by adding a variety of fiber-rich foods and sneaking into the fibers. Body: ≠ Recommendations The amount of fiber your child needs depends on his or her age. Toddlers aged 1 to 3 need about 19 grams a day. Kids 4
