What is an autoreceptor?
An autoreceptor is a receptor which is situated in the terminal of a presynaptic nerve cell, sensitive to neurotransmitters released by the neuron in whose membrane the autoreceptor sits.
Upper motor neuron lesion?
Upper motor neurons: they are the motor cells of cerebral cortex and subcortical centres whose axons constitue the pyramidal and extra-pyramidal tracts(which then descend to end around the motor nuclei of cranial nerves in brainstem and anterior horn cells of the spinal cord)Lower motor neurons: they are the cells of motor nuclei of cranial nerves and anterior horn cells of spinal cords, and their axons which constitute the motor fibres of the peripheral nerves that terminate in the motor end plate of striated muscles.
Whose working uniform his called his turnouts?
A fireman's
Whose working uniform is called hi turnouts?
A fireman's
Who is called the grandfather of genetics?
A monk, whose name is Gregor Mendel, is called the grandfather of genetics.
What is a preganglionic neuron?
autonomic motor neuron that has its body in a peripheral ganglion and projects its (postganglionic) axon to an effector.
What is principle of final common path as it pertains to somatic motor pathways?
This means that all the somatic motor pathways involve a single motor neuron whose axon stretches from the cell body in CBS all the way to the effector unrepeated by that neuron.
What are some other names for ALS?
It is also known as motor neuron disease and Lou Gehrig's disease, after the baseball player whose career it ended.
What does motor nuerons do?
Ultimately a motor neuron is involved in the pathway of sending information from your brain to your muscles, thus allowing your brain to control the movements of your body. As an analogy, think of your computer and the printer to which it is attached. The computer is your brain, the printer is the muscle that needs to perform an action, and the cable connecting the two is the motor neuron.A neuron is a cell in the central nervous system that has a cell body and a very long extension called an axon. There are two levels of motor neurons in your body, the upper motor neuron and the lower motor neuron. The upper motor neurons originate from the cortex of the brain and project their axons down to the spinal cord to terminate in the ventral horns of the spinal cord. The ventral horn in the spinal cord is a column of grey matter located towards the front (or the ventral side) in the spinal cord. In the ventral horn of the spinal cord, the axons of the upper motor neurons synapse with lower motor neurons, whose cell bodies are located in the ventral horn. The lower motor neurons then have axons that exit the spinal cord and leave through nerve roots, to the peripheral nerves of your body, and eventually to the muscles that control your movement. Some of the lower motor neurons that control facial movement are located in the brainstem and not the spinal cord.Motor neurons can also be classified functionally by what they do, i.e. general somatic efferent neurons, general visceral efferent motor neurons, or special visceral efferent motor neurons.This can get much more complicated when we take into account the amount of descending input from the brain, brainstem, and cerebellum; and the integration that occurs at the level of the lower motor neuron cell body. Most simplistically, the function of the motor neuron is to transmit the message from the brain to the muscle.Diseases of motor neurons, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and spinal muscular atrophy, can be very serious and currently have no cure.
What is the simplest kind of motor called?
It really depends on what you mean by 'simple'. Motors don't come much simpler than a three-phase induction motor, whose field windings provide an automatically-rotating magnetic field and whose rotor doesn't require any connection to an external supply.
What is LT motor?
LT motors are those motor whose voltage rating is less than 415v.
What is an autoreceptor?
An autoreceptor is a receptor which is situated in the terminal of a presynaptic nerve cell, sensitive to neurotransmitters released by the neuron in whose membrane the autoreceptor sits.

What is the nodal system?
The nodal system is the second system whose job is to regulate heart activity (the other one is the autonomic nervous system). It sets the basic rhythm of the heartbeats.
A country whose ruler has unlimited power called?
A country whose ruler has unlimited power is called an autocracy.
What is organism whose cells contain nuclei called?
An organism whose cels contain nuclei is called eukaryots!
What are the 2 numbers whose product is one called?
Numbers whose product is one is called multiplicative inverses.
