Homan's  Test is an examination procedure of the ankle to test for dorsiflexion, which signals thromboembolism. This is done by putting patient in supine position with leg straight, and then raising the leg 10 degrees. The examiner will then dorsiflex the foot and squeeze the calf. Pain in the calf upon flexion of the ankle with the leg straight means a positive Homan's sign.

The synapse is typically located between the _____ of the first (sending) neuron and the _____ of the second (receiving) neuron.
uysha [10]

Answer:

axon; dendrite

Explanation:

A neuron has three main parts. These are axons, dendrites, and a cell body. Synapse is the site of communication between two neurons. The first neuron of a synapse is called the presynaptic neuron (sending neuron) while the second one is called the postsynaptic neuron (receiving). The axon of the presynaptic neuron and the dendrites of the postsynaptic neuron communicate with each other at the synapse as the axon of the first neuron delivers the nerve impulse away from the cell body.

Dendrites function as the receiving or input portions of a neuron. The plasma membranes of dendrites have numerous receptor sites for binding chemical messengers from the presynaptic neuron.
