The spinal cord serves as the center for reflexes. Reflexes don't enter the brain and all, which is a good thing because it is too slow for reflexes to work to protect us from harm.
What protects the spinal cord and supports the head and the back?
The human body is made up of various tendons, muscles, and bones that all serve a different function. The head and back are supported by the spinal column which is covered by vertebrae that run from your tail to your neck.
The spinal cord is mainly white, with a grey, butterfly shaped area of grey at its center.
The central nervous system in vertebrates consists of the what and the spinal cord?
The central nervous system
What spinal cord location would you find the origin of the white rami communicantes.?
The white rami communicantes are myelinated pre-ganglionic fibers (myelinated axons) from cell bodies located in the internal gray of the spinal cord. These fibers represent general visceral efferents of the sympathetic nervous system.
What is the function of the spnal cord?
The spinal cord is basically the "information highway of the body", back and forth between the brain and the rest of the body. This information includes touch, temperature, pain, and signals telling muscles to move.
the thoratic cavity is the space between the crotch and the abdomin in a female.
A USB Cord, also known as a universal serial bus, is a type of computer cable that is highly versatile and serves many functions. It has a rectangular head. The cable is often used for connecting input/output devices, plug-and-play systems, and many other things to computers. As stated above, they are highly effective and versatile cords.
The brain stem is about the size of a thumb in diameter and approximately 3 inches (approximately 7.5 cm) long. It structures are the midbrain, pons, and the medulla obongata. The midbrain is mostly composed of tracts of nerve fibers. The midbrain has two bulging fiber tract-cerebral peduncles. It also has four rounded protrusions. The midbrain reflex centers for vision and hearing. The pons are the bulging center part of the brain stem. It is mostly composed of fiber tracts. It includes nuclei involved in the control of breathing. The medulla oblongata is the lowest part of the brain stem, it merges into the spinal cord, includes important fiber tracts, and contains important control centers. Heart rate control, blood pressure regulation, breathing, swallowing and vomiting. Recticular formation, diffus mass of gray matter along the brain stem. Involved in motor control of visceral organs. Reticular activating system plays a role in awake/ sleep cycles and consciousness
Where are neurons found in the human body apart from the brain and spinal cord?
In the nerves of the peripheral nervous system; 12 cranial nerves and 31 spinal nerves.
Cavities are caused by the build up of plaque on your teeth. The plaque causes your teeth to decay which in turn blackens the tooth and causes pain in it.
What is instrumentation tubing?
inst. tubing is used to connect various pressure gauges,pressure switches,valves and flow monitors on industrial piping and ventilation systems. the most common materials the tubing is made from are mild and stainless steel,copper and aluminum. the tubing is measured by the "O.D" or outside diameter. the most common sizes are 1/4"-3/8"-1/2"
What are the functions of spinal cord?
The spinal cord is basically the "information highway of the body." Messages are sent back and forth between the brain and the rest of the body via the spinal cord. This information includes touch, temperature, pain, joint position and signals telling muscles to move. Our spinal cord allows us to perform reflex actions; during the time of an emergency the signals instead of going all the way to our brain go to the spinal cord so that the time lapse decreases. The spinal cord is made up of neural pathways. In order for a message to go from the brain to the body, that message, or impulse, is passed from neuron to neuron through junctions called synapses. This process continues until the message reaches its final destination, such as muscle, gland, or other non-neural cell.
What structures compose spermatic cord?
The spermatic cord is found only in males. The spermatic cord is composed of the vas deferens which run from each testicle.
The safest options for window coverings without cords are cordless blinds, shades, or shutters. These options eliminate the risk of strangulation for children and pets.
How can I effectively hide cords in my home?
To effectively hide cords in your home, you can use cord covers, cable management boxes, or raceways to conceal them along walls or floors. Additionally, you can use furniture or rugs to strategically cover cords and keep them out of sight.
