Meninges refers to the three layes of membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord of the mammals. The inflammation of these protective membranes of the brain and the spinal cord caused by the infection of bacteria, virus or other microorganisms is called the meningitis.
A laboratory test to identify or rule out meningitis is the analysis if the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by lumbar puncture. CSF is a colorless fluid filling the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. Lumbar puncture is a techinque of isolating the CSF from the sac sround the spinal cord using a needle under a local anesthetic. The sample is then analysed for the opening pressure which is normally between 6 and 18 cm of water in a patient who is not infected with meningitis. Also, the levels of glucose in CSF is above 40% of that in blood in non-infected persons. If lactate levels are less than 35mg/dl, this will also rule out meningitis.
Answer:
2.048 x 10^6 No. Of Copies
Explanation:
The DNA replication in a PCR works exponentially by using the 2^n where n represents the number of cycles.
For one molecule of DNA = 2^11 = 2048 No. Of Copies
For 1000 Molecules of DNA = 1000 x 2048 = 2.048 x 10^6 No. Of Copies
Answer:
The reason is because it takes a long time for the light from the stars in the sky to reach earth, so the light the star was producing millions of years ago has just now reached Earth.
Hope this helped! :)
The given blank can be filled with medulla.
The medulla also called the medulla oblongata is the segment of the brainstem that is factually the stem, which elongates from the brain. The medulla is positioned below the pons and above the spinal cord and is a major relay intersection for information conducted to and from the spinal cord and the brain. This section of the brain is a monitoring center for circulation and respiration.
