What else can I help you with?
What is the space between neurons called?
The space between neurons is called the synapse.
What is the function of the space between the lungs in the chest?
The space between the lungs in the chest is called the mediastinum. Its function is to house and protect vital organs such as the heart, major blood vessels, esophagus, trachea, and lymph nodes. It also allows for the passage of nerves and blood vessels to and from the upper body.
The space between the legs is called?
The space between the legs is called the pubic area. Other associated anatomical structures are the perineum and the anus.
Space between the vocal cords is called?
The space between the vocal cords is called the glottis.
What is the small space between one neuron and the next is called?
A synapse, chemical signals called neurotransmitters cross these gaps, carrying on the signal.
Space between two tree nodes is called?
The internode.
What do you call the space between leaf veins?
The internode space. The space between the two leafe nodes. The spaces between leaf veins are called areoles.
What is retrocrural?
Enlarged lymph nodes in the space in the inferior and posterior mediastinum between the crura of the diaphragm.
What is the space between your toes called?
The space between your toes is called the interdigital space.
What are nodes and internodes?
The node is the part of the stem of the plant from which leaves, branches, and aerial roots emerge. There are many nodes on a plant stem. The distance between each node is called the inter node.
What are the tiny gaps between adjacent schwann cells called?
Remember that the Schwann cells are made of myelin sheath which insulate the impulse, but also block the sodium ion/potassium ion channels. Therefore there has to be a point where the action potential 'jumps' to, and these are the gaps between the Schwann cells, they are called the Nodes of Ranvier.
What is inter-node?
An internode is a portion of plant stem between nodes. An internodal segment is a portion of nerve fibre.
What is the difference between an internode and node of ranvier?
A Node of Ranvier is the space between two myelinated segments on an axon, while an internode is the space between two Nodes of Ranvier (alternativenly, the myelinated segment).
What is the space between neurons called?
The space between neurons is called the synapse.
What is the function of the space between the lungs in the chest?
The space between the lungs in the chest is called the mediastinum. Its function is to house and protect vital organs such as the heart, major blood vessels, esophagus, trachea, and lymph nodes. It also allows for the passage of nerves and blood vessels to and from the upper body.
Gaps between segments of oligodendrocytes or between individual schwann cells are called?
The spaces along the axon and between the myelin sheath are known as the nodes of Ranvier. They are responsible for speeding up the signals that are transmitted along the axon of the nerve. While the myelin sheath consists of many layers that protect the axon, the nodes of Ranvier are uncovered, giving them the ability to produce an electrical charge.
What is the space between your eyebrows called?
The space between your eyebrows is called the "Glabella."
