<span>Ian Waterman was able to sense pain and temperature because his
spinothalamic pathway was intact, but could not feel touch and limb position because of damage to his
lemniscus pathway. </span>
The lateral spinothalamic tract is a sensory pathway which carries sensory information like pain and temperature to the brain, across the thalamus. Free nerve endings which are located in the peripheral tissues are sensitive to cell damage. Those are primary neurons and they pass the sensory signal. Primary neurons synapse with secondary which are located in the spinal cord (white matter). These secondary neurons will ascend through the brainstem, medulla oblongata, pons and midbrain, until synapsing in the ventroposteriorlateral (VPL) nucleus of the thalamus. From the thalamus, the information is sent to cortex (somatosensory cortex).
Posterior column-medial lemniscus pathway is ascending spinal tract, carrying sensory information to the brain (sensory pathway). It conducts localized sensations of fine touch, vibration and proprioception (position sense) from the skin and extremities (muscles) to the central nervous system (cerebral cortex).
If an atom is unstable it can become stable by the gain or loss of electrons.
Answer:
Generation of an action potential in the neuron.
Stimulation of Ca2+ entry into the neuron
Release of acetylcholine into the synapse
Depolarization of the muscle fiber membrane
Explanation:
The following events takes place in the vertebrate neuromuscular junction
a) Nerve Action Potential - Action potential reaches the axon terminal
b) Entry of calcium ion - The calcium ion reaches the axon terminal and enter into the presynaptic terminus after which the Synaptic vesicles fuse with the membrane of axon terminal
c) Releasing of Arch Quanta - Acetylcholine is released into synaptic cleft which then binds to the receptor sites on motor end plate
d) The Na+/K+ channels opens and Motor end plate becomes depolarized.
Answer:
nitrogen is an essential nutrient for sustaining life on earth, without it, plants would die, then herbivores due to starvation, and so on
Explanation:
Answer:
There is no chance of child with the disease
Explanation:
As cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease homogeneous condition is required in child to have the disease . Since the mother is not suffering from the disease & there is no history in her family so she does not have the gene for cystic fibrosis
Explanation:
thankyou
