Neural & Synaptic Transmission The nervous system is made up of neurons and glila cells. Neurons are the basic communication links in the nervous system. Glila cell provide support for neurons and contribute to communication. Neurons normally transmit a neural impulse (an electric current) along an axon to a synapse with another neuron. The neural impulse is a brief change in neuron’s electrical charge that moves along an axon. It is an all-or-none event. Action potential triggers

Handout Lab 5 - Cranial Nerves: Assessment of Functions INTRODUCTION The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and the spinal cord. The CNS receives sensory information from other parts of the body or the body’s external environment and transmits motor information to other parts of the body by way of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS of the human includes 31 pairs of spinal nerves and 12 pairs of cranial nerves. Some nerves contain only motor nerve fibers (efferent fibers);

Permanent Income Hypothesis Introduction The basic idea is that people’s income has a random element to it and also a known element to it and that people try to smooth the random part using saving and borrowing. Hence‚ we need to distinguish between permanent income and transitory income. Example: Suppose that you are working and receive an annual salary of twenty thousand dollar. Suppose that you expect to get that salary every year in the future. Then twenty thousand dollar represents the

Rosenblatt’s Perceptron ORGANIZATION OF THE CHAPTER The perceptron occupies a special place in the historical development of neural networks: It was the first algorithmically described neural network. Its invention by Rosenblatt‚ a psychologist‚ inspired engineers‚ physicists‚ and mathematicians alike to devote their research effort to different aspects of neural networks in the 1960s and the 1970s. Moreover‚ it is truly remarkable to find that the perceptron (in its basic form as described

The Michael addition is a reaction named after Arthur Michael. Discovered in 1887‚ this is a carbon-carbon bond making reaction. The result of the Michael addition is a 1‚4 addition of a nucleophile to an alpha‚ beta-unsaturated carbonyl carbon compound. A 1‚4 addition is also commonly referred to as a conjugated addition. Another result of this reaction is a 1‚2 addition of a nucleophile. Some of the common attacking nucleophiles used in this reaction are enolates. Enolates‚ a negatively charged

Nerve and neuron sound similar to most people‚ but they are two different components of the body (Martini‚ 375). Nerves are found only in the peripheral nervous system‚ while neurons are found in the brain‚ spinal cord‚ and peripheral nerve (Martini‚ 375). Neurons are nerves cells that are specialized for intercellular communication (Martini‚ 375). A neuron is composed of a cell body‚ dendrites and axon (Marieb‚ 376). A nerve is a bundle of axons or dendrites that is wrapped in connective tissues
