What gap is called into which the chemical is released?
A synaptic cleft is the gap into which a chemical is released.
The allele for a cleft chin C is dominant among humans what are the results of a cross between parents with genotypes Cc and cc?
In this scenario, there would be a 50% chance of Cc and 50% chance of cc. Half of the offspring would have a cleft chin, and half would have a normal chin.?æ
Which structure contains vesicles with acetylcholine?
Synaptic vesicles in the neuromuscular junction contain acetylcholine (ACh) which is the neurotransmitter for initiating muscular contractions.
What is the consequences of the administration of a compound that inhibits acetylcholinesterases?
If the action of acetylcholinesterase is inhibited, acetylcholine is not degraded and would accumulate in the synaptic cleft and act as a constant stimulus to the muscle fiber. The muscle cells will continue to contract resulting in a condition called spastic paralysis.
How does the lock and key model of enzymes action explain the highly specific way some enzymes select a substrate?
This refers to the hypothesis proposed by Emil Fischer in 1894 but confirmed until the 20th century. Fischer proposed that the specificity of an enzyme (the lock) for its substrate (the key) arises from their geometrically complementary shapes. More specifically, the noncovalent forces through which substrates and other molecules bind to the enzyme are identical in character to the forces that dictate the conformations of the proteins themselves. Both involve van der Waals, electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions.A substrate-binding site consists of an interaction or cleft on the surface of an enzyme molecule that is complementary in shape to the surface (geometrical complementarity). Molecules that differ in shape of functional group distribution from the substrate cannot productively bind to the enzyme; that is, they cannot form enzyme-substrate complexes that lead to the formation of products.
Bilateral cleft lip major or minor surgery?
minor
What is the prevalence of unilateral cleft lip?
A unilateral cleft lip, commonly occurring on the left side, is more common than a bilateral cleft lip.
Why is bilateral cleft lip particularly problematic?
Discontinuity of the muscle fibers of the orbicularis oris (primary muscle of the lip.) This deformity can result in closure of the mouth and pursing of the lip.
How are cleft lips defined?
As well as unilateral or bilateral, cleft lips are further classified as complete or incomplete. A complete cleft is the entire lip, and usually the alveolar arch. An incomplete cleft involves only part of the lip.
What does cheiloplasty mean?
Cleft lip repair.
What are the morbidity rates for cleft lip repair?
Generally, cleft lip repair is well-tolerated in healthy infants. There are no major health problems associated with this reconstructive surgery.
What is a palatoplasty?
Palatoplasty means surgical repair of the palate (the roof of the mouth).
What is the cleft lip classification system devised by the American Cleft Palate Association?
This classification divides cleft lip into unilateral or bilateral (right, left or extent) in thirds--(i.e., one-third, two-thirds, three-thirds), or median cleft lip, the extent of which is also measured in thirds.
What procedure is used to surgically repair a cleft palate?
palatoplasty
How can you get a cleft chin?
One can be born with a cleft chin. Another way one would get a cleft chin, if they wanted it, would be through plastic surgery. A cleft would be bored into the fissure of the chin bone and then one would have a cleft chin.
How does bilateral cleft lip develop?
Similar to unilateral cleft lip formation, with varying degrees of deformity on each side of the defect. An anatomical structure (intermaxillary segment) projects to the front and hangs unattached.
