A sharp pyramid-shaped mountain peak, formed when several cirques surround a single high mountain, is called a pyramidal peak.

A pyramidal peak, (also called glacial horn) is a sharply, pointed, pyramid-shaped mountain peak which results from the cirque (bowl-shaped basins) erosion caused by many glaciers that are carved away from a central point. The pyramidal peak has a feature of a sharp-edged summit, and steep sloping sides. Examples of pyramidal peak include; Mount Aspiring in New Zealand, Pilot Peak in Wyoming, United States and Nevado Las Agujas in Los Ríos, Chile.

What is medulla oblongata ?

  • Medulla oblongata, also called medulla, the lowest part of the brain and the lowest portion of the brainstem.
  • The medulla oblongata is connected by the pons to the midbrain and is continuous posteriorly with the spinal cord, with which it merges at the opening (foramen magnum) at the base of the skull.
  • The medulla oblongata plays a critical role in transmitting signals between the spinal cord and the higher parts of the brain and in controlling autonomic activities, such as heartbeat and respiration
  • The medulla is divided into two main parts: the ventral medulla (the frontal portion) and the dorsal medulla (the rear portion; also known as the tegmentum).
  • The ventral medulla contains a pair of triangular structures called pyramids, within which lie the pyramidal tracts.
  • The pyramidal tracts are made up of the corticospinal tract (running from the cerebral cortex to the spinal cord) and the corticobulbar tract (running from the motor cortex of the frontal lobe to the cranial nerves in the brainstem)

pshichka [43]

Answer:

The condition is called "Spinal Bifida", caused by lack of vitamin B12 which helps regenerate the active form of folate.

Explanation:

Because Lori is a vegan, her vitamin B12 intake which comes from animal products such as meat, is not enough. She has to take supplements to make up for the lack of it in her diet.

As stated in the question, this lack of vitamin B12 causes her child to have a defect in his spinal cord called Spinal Bifida that defines a spinal cord or spine that has not fully developed. The vitamin B12 is necessary for regenerating the active form of folate.

I hope this answer helps.
