Why can't a damaged cell in the brain be replaced?
Damaged cells in the brain cannot be replaced because the brain lacks the ability to regenerate cells like other organs in the body. Additionally, the complex network of neurons in the brain makes it difficult for new cells to integrate and function properly. Research is ongoing to find ways to stimulate brain cell regeneration, but it remains a challenging area in neuroscience.
Do braincells grow back?
No, brain cells do not regenerate or grow back once they are damaged or lost. However, other brain cells can sometimes compensate for the lost functions. It is important to protect and preserve brain health to prevent cell damage.
Where does an Acoustic neuroma grow?
The nerve leading from the inner ear to the brain
Microscopic fiber that carries the nervous impulse along nerve cell?
Some nerve cells have fibers that grow out of the cell, which are called axons. Axons allow a nerve cell to connect to distant parts of the body, so that cells in the brain can send messages to, and receive messages from a toe, for example, which might be six feet away from the brain. Other nerve cells just connect to their immediate neighboring nerve cells, and therefore do not require axons; they instead have smaller extensions called dendrites.
What are the disadvantages for a cell that does not divide?
If a cell does not divide, and it is destroyed, it cannot grow back and you will have a cell shortage. Like the brain cell
Embroyonic stem cell will help brain injury?
stem cells are special cells that can differentiate into any kind of human cell. The brain is made up of nerve cells which cannot regenerate. This means that a person with a brain or spinal chord injury is not able to heal. Theoretically, a doctor could induce these stem cells to grow into nerve cells in order to heal a person with a brain or spinal chord injury. In order to do this however they would need to be able to do a lot of research with stem cells first
Why does the cell cycle occur?
So you can grow. It also helps repair damaged or old cells.
If your young and have brain damage is it more likely for kids to become cirelel killers when they grow up?
Well i think it realy depends on how badly brain damaged you are.
When brain cell dies due to sneezing do they grow back?
Brain cells never grow back. But sneezing doesn't kill brain cells, and even if it did, you have so many brain cells losing a few would literally make no difference at all.
What is the purpose of mitosis in an organism that reproduces sexually?
Mitotic cell division allows the organism to grow and repair damaged tissues.
What makes your bodies grow?
There is a gland in your brain, right behind the optic nerve. That gland controls puberty stages and how your body grows.
Has the vein burst in your wrist?
The nerves that serve the body aren't particularly strong, and they can be injured or broken from too much stretching, pressure, or cutting. If the nerve is damaged through excessive stretching or pressure, it may stop working and no longer carry messages to and from the brain. The tissue surrounding the nerve, however, may be undamaged. If the nerve is cut, the nerve along with its covering may both be broken. In any injury, the nerve's ability to carry messages may be interrupted, and this can stop muscles from working or can cause loss of feeling in the part of the body served by that particular nerve. If a nerve fiber breaks, the end of the nerve that's farthest from the brain dies. If the insulation isn't damaged, it becomes an empty tube once the nerve completely dies. The end of the fiber closest to the brain will not die, however. In fact, it may even start healing on its own, possibly growing back through the uninjured tube until it reaches a muscle or a sensory receptor. If both the nerve and its surrounding tissue are cut and the nerve is not repaired, a condition known as a neuroma may result. In such cases, the nerve fibers try to grow back but because they don't have a good insulating tube in which to grow, they end up forming a ball at the site of the original cut. The neuroma that results can be painful and can even cause an electrical sensation when it's touched.
