INTRODUCTION Trigeminal nerve is the most largest and most complex of the 12 nerves. It supplies sensations to the face‚ mucous membrane and other structures of the head. It provides a motor nerve to the muscles of mastication and contains proprioceptive receptors. It consists of a large sensory and small motor nerve that exits through the pons at it junction with the middle cerebral peduncle. Laterally it passes to join the semilunar ganglion in the Meckel Cave. The nerve passes anteriorly to end

Session 9: The Nervous System - Assignment #2 PhysioEx Assignment : Exercise 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses Activity 1: The Resting Membrane Potential 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels. Increasing the extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value because when K+ ions diffuse out across the membrane they are leaving behind a net negative charge. 2. Explain

Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) The anatomy of the optic nerve sheath : The intraorbital section of the optic nerve extends from the globe‚ where it inserts medially‚ to the optic canal located in the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone. It is encased by a meningeal sheath consisting of dura mater‚ arachnoid mater and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid is contained in the trabeculated subarachnoid space and is continuously and slowly filtered. As a result the optic nerve sheath is in direct

EXERCISE 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses Laboratory Report Answer the following questions. (3 points each). 1. What is the difference between membrane irritability and membrane conductivity? Membrane irritability is the ability to respond to a stimuli and convert it in to nerve impulses. Membrane conductivity is the ability to transmit that impulse that is created by membrane irritability. 2. If you were to spend a lot of time studying nerve physiology in the laboratory‚ what

Exercise 1: The effects of nerve stimulation A. Describe briefly what you have done for this section (maximum 100 words). Basically I am the volunteer. Two students handle the system while one student helps to spread the adequate electrode cream on the volunteer’s left wrist. The system is set to continuous‚ frequency is 1Hz‚ pulse duration at 200μs and pulse current at 10mA. The stimulator is switched off to disconnect the isolated stimulator terminals. The stimulus is then switched on and
