What else can I help you with?
What vein merges with the popliteal vein?
small saphenous
Does the small saphenous vein begin on the posterior of the lateral malleolus of the fibula or the medial malleolus of the tibia?
Medial malleolus of the tibia
What superficial vein receives flow from the three main perforating veins of distal calf?
The small saphenous vein flows from the DISTAL calf.
What are the small parts at the end of nerves?
terminal buttons, the gap between the nerves is the synapse. The small parts at the top of the nerve cell are called dendrites
What type of blood vessel returns blood back to the heart?
Blood is returned to the heart via the veins. Some of the main veins are: Jugular veins (from head) Pulmonary veins (from lungs) Portal vein Azygos vein Superior vena cava Inferior vena cava Iliac vein Femoral vein (from legs) Popliteal vein Great saphenous vein Small saphenous
Small groups of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
Peripheral nerves.
What is the role of nerves tissue in the small intestine?
You have local nerve plexus in case of small intestine. The small intestine is also supplied by nerves from parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system. The parasympathetic supply augments the peristalsis, secretion of enzymes. Sympathetic nerves inhibit the same. Together they work better.
What does nibble?
To eat or chew in small bites. Can also mean snacks, such as nuts and crisps to accompany drinks
How thick is a neuron?
Nerves vary in size. Nerves like the sciatic nerve are large while other are small. There are three types of nerves in the human body. Afferent, efferent, and mixed.
Where do the small nerves go when they branch from a ganglion of the ventral nerve core in an earthworm?
In earthworms, small nerves that branch from a ganglion of the ventral nerve cord generally extend to the surrounding segments of the body. These nerves innervate muscles and sensory structures, allowing for coordinated movement and responsiveness to environmental stimuli. The branching pattern of these nerves enables the earthworm to control its locomotion and interact with its environment effectively.
What does nibbling mean?
To eat or chew in small bites. Can also mean snacks, such as nuts and crisps to accompany drinks
What type of nerve cells receives stimuli for the sense of small?
Olfactory nerves, definetly. We're studying this currently in my grade.
