neighbor I would say it is very likely that she has damaged her oculomotor nerve. The oculomotor nerve innervates both the inferior rectus muscle and the levator palpebrae superioris. The inferior rectus muscle allows the eye to depress and abduct‚ if there were an injury to the oculomotor nerve it could cause the eye to retain this position. The levator palpebrae superioris allows the eyelid to elevate and damage to the nerve here would cause the inability to fully lift her right eyelid (Drake‚ Richard

sciatic nerve‚ speed of transmission and degree of myelination can all have an effect on the sciatic nerve and therefore the peak contractile force of B. Marinus. The diameter of the axon in the sciatic nerve would impact how fast the action potential is conceived down the axon to the synaptic cleft and muscle (Firmin‚ L. 2014). If one of the toads had a smaller axon diameter it would allow for resistance to movement to occur due to friction. The diameter of the axon in the sciatic nerve would therefore
