garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Multiple Sclerosis is an inflammatory disease in which myelin sheath of nerve cells of brain and spinal cord are damaged.

Explanation:

Cause:- (Exact cause of inflammation is not known)

  • But damage is caused due to attack by autoimmune cells or antibodies against myelin sheath.

Types of tissues attack:-

  • Oligodendrocytes and myelin sheath is damaged and stripped away from axon and the process is known as demyelination.
  • Myelin sheaths are made up of fatty tissues and help in transmission of electric impulse.

Result of immune system attack:-

  • Damaged myelin sheath stop forming whIte matter of central nervous system.
  • Hence disrupt coordinating communication between different brain regions.

Signs and symptoms:- vary from person to person

  • Diminished eyesight.
  • Disrupt motor coordination.
  • Weak sensory perception.
  • Fatigue and dizziness.
  • Speech disorder.
  • Muscle weakness and spasticity.
  • Difficulty in urination and stool.

Diagnosis and treatment:-

  • Diagnosis include MRI T2 findings and cerebrospinal fluid specific oligoclonal bands.

Which of the following functions does the myelin sheath perform for a nerve cell?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a. insulation  

Explanation:

The myelin sheath provides increased cell isolation (increased membrane resistance) because there are no membrane leakage channels in which there is myelin.

In addition to no membrane leakage channels, there is also virtually no type of membrane channel when there is myelin sheath (eg sodium and potassium pumps), which causes the cell a lower need for protein synthesis, or that is, less energy expenditure.
