What else can I help you with?
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?
The cross between parents with genotypes Cc and cc would result in 50% of the offspring having the dominant allele (Cc) and 50% having the recessive allele (cc) for the cleft chin trait. This is because the parent with genotype Cc can pass on either the dominant or recessive allele, while the parent with genotype cc can only pass on the recessive allele.
Which structure contains vesicles with acetylcholine?
Synaptic vesicles in the axon terminals of neurons contain acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that is released from these vesicles into the synaptic cleft to transmit signals to target cells or other neurons.
What is it called when neurotransmitters are recycled?
The process of recycling neurotransmitters is known as reuptake. This is when neurotransmitters are taken back up into the presynaptic neuron after they have been released into the synaptic cleft.
What gap is called into which the chemical is released?
A synaptic cleft is the gap into which a chemical is released.
What is a Unused neurotransmitters are absorbed in a process?
Unused neurotransmitters are absorbed through a process called reuptake, where they are taken back up into the presynaptic neuron that released them. This allows for the efficient recycling of neurotransmitters and helps to regulate the levels of neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft.
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 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 is a palatoplasty?
Palatoplasty means surgical repair of the palate (the roof of the mouth).
Does Jeff Withey have a repaired cleft lip?
Yes. He has a repaired cleft lip. His palate did not need repairing. His surgery took place when he was three months old
What procedure is used to surgically repair a cleft palate?
palatoplasty
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.
