Anatomy of Peripheral Nerves Peripheral nerves consist of fascicles that contain myelinated and unmyelinated axons. Endoneurium is the small amount of matrix that is present between individual axons. The perineurium is a sheath of special‚ fiber-like cells that ties the axons of each fascicle together. Epineurium is the connective tissue that surrounds the entire nerve trunk and gives off vascular connective tissue septa that traverse the nerve and separate fascicles from one another. | | Single

sclerosis‚ usually referred to as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease‚ is a condition that continually deteriorates motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Motor neurons are nerve cells that control muscle movements. When these nerves fail‚ the muscles they are supposed to communicate with don’t receive the full messages that are being carried from the brain or spinal cord‚ causing the muscles to stop working properly. Early symptoms of this disease include cramping or twitching of feet and hand muscles

Bringing a baby into this world is one of God’s greatest creations. Babies should be born out of love from their mother and father. That is why so many people are against embryonic stem cell research‚ designer babies‚ and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis. These procedures go along with the concept of the novel and of how Anna was conceived by in vitro fertilization. They go against the catholic religion due to the fact that creating a baby in a petri dish defeats the whole purpose of natural conception
