How many branches does the mandibular nerve have?

The mandibular nerve, which is the third division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V3), has several branches. It primarily divides into three main branches: the anterior trunk, which further gives rise to motor branches and sensory branches, and the posterior trunk, which provides sensory innervation. Key branches include the inferior alveolar nerve, lingual nerve, and buccal nerve, among others. Overall, the exact number of branches can vary, but it typically includes around five to six significant branches.


Where ih the body are nerve cells found?

Maybe the question is not specific enough...Many kinds of nerve cells are found all over the body. The spine, the skin, the brain etc.


How many types of glial cells are found in the nervous system?

There is more than 1 million nerve cells in your body.


Do nerve cells and blood cells the same shape?

No - they have very different shapes in order to perform their specific functions. Nerve cells are long with branched 'dendrites' at the end. There are many different blood cells, one of which - red blood cells - are almost circular with an indent in the middle.


Which of these cells is likely to NOT continue to divide A Skin cell B nerve cell C epithelial cells lining the cheek or D all of these?

B Nerve cell is the least likely to continue dividing as most nerve cells are mature and do not undergo cell division once they have differentiated to perform their specific function. On the other hand, skin cells, epithelial cells lining the cheek, and many other types of cells continue to undergo mitosis to replace damaged or lost cells.

Why do you get pachygyria?

It all begins in very early pregnancy. The embryo's brain forms during the first month of pregnancy, all the nerve cells are located in the center surrounding a fluid-filled cavity called the central canal. During the second month, support cells begin to send branches up to the surface of the brain. During the third and fourth months, the nerve cells climb up these branches to reach the surface. Each wave of nerve cells climbs above the preceding waves so that the last wave of cells is closest to the surface. Normally, a large majority of all nerve cells are located at or just under the surface in an area called the cortex. In pachygyria, many of the nerve cells do not reach the surface. They are stuck in an abnormal position, and so cannot make their usual connections with other nerve cells. Causes include untreated viral infections of the uterus or the fetus during the first trimester, or insufficient blood supply to the fetal brain early in pregnancy, drug or medication abuse in the 3-4 month of pregnancy or genetic mutations.


What cranial nerve that regulates most of the internal thoracic and abdominal organs?

X, Number 10- the Vagus Nerve is the one that is connected with abdominal organs."The vagus nerve (n. vagus) (X pair) is mixed. Its motor fibers from the cells start motor nucleus, and sensitive - sensitive ganglion cells from occurring in the jugular orifice. From the brain of the vagus nerve goes behind the olive tree, and the skull - through the jugular hole and is divided into many branches, bound to the organs of the head, neck, chest and abdominal cavities.
