Ground substance:

Ground substance may be defined as the component of extracellular matrix that made up of proteoglycans. The main function of ground substance is to resist the compressive forces.

Collagen fiber:

Collagen fiber may be defined as a type of protein fiber that provides strength to the organism. Collagen fibers are present within the matrix of the cell.

Elastic fiber:

Elastic fiber are presnt in bundles in the extracellular matrix. The amorphous elastin is present in the elastic fiber. This fiber provide elasticity to the cells.

Reticular fiber:

4) Considering the autonomic (visceral) nervous system identify which neurons are cholinergic and
Oxana [17]
<h2>Cholinergic and Adrenergic neurons</h2>

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a dual innervations system which innervates internal organs of the body through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). Depending upon the neurotransmitter and receptor used, the ANS fibers are classified as cholinergic or adrenergic neurons.

The preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic and the preganglionic and postganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACH) and hence are called cholinergic neurons.

The postganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system releases catecholamine like norepinephrine(NE) and hence called as adrenergic neurons.

The cholinergic neurons store ACH in the synaptic terminals. They are myelinated to aid in faster neurotransmission. The ACH neurotransmitter released from preganglionic neurons activates the two receptors – nicotinic ACH and muscarinic receptors on the postganglionic neurons .

The postganglionic neurons releasing NE binds to the adrenergic receptors – Alpha 1 and 2, Beta 1, 2, and 3.

the nurse is assessing cranial nerves 3, 4, and 6 (oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens). which technique might the nurse use to
yuradex [85]

To assess the cranial nerves 3,4, and 6 all at once, the nurse should use the <u>test </u><u>eye</u><u> movement technique using the penlight.</u>

To test cranial nerves III, IV, and VI (oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens) together.

Test the eye movement with a penlight. Stand 30 cm in front of the patient and ask them to follow the direction of the penlight with their eyes only. At eye level, move the penlight left to right, right to left, top to bottom, top right to bottom left, and top left to bottom right. Also, pay attention to eye movements in all fields. An unexpected finding is an involuntary eye tremor called nystagmus.

Test the pupils on both sides to make sure they are evenly rounded and respond to light and accommodation. Dim the lights in the room before running this test. The pupil should be round and the same size on both sides.
