This chapter describes the anatomical layers in order from the outer surface of the eye to the inner core. It addresses the anatomical terms used in ophthalmology and shows the anatomy of retinal layers. The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) provides physiological support to the overlying neuro...

Describe the general anatomy of a reflex arc. Define a reflex arc. Explain the function of the reflex for posture control. List and describe the 6 essential steps/activities that occur in digestion. What are the actions of the six eye muscles?
Anatomy and physiology of the (efferent) peripheral nervous system and its effectors The effector cells innervated by postganglionic autonomic neurones: important effects caused by nervous activity The pharmacology of cholinergic axons and their terminals The pharmacology of the cholinoceptors of skeletal...

the body's "slow" chemical communication system; a set of glands that secrete hormones into the bloodstream Somatic Actions you control Sympathetic System the division of the autonomic nervous system that arouses the body, mobilizing its energy in stressful situations ...
Despite difference in the anatomy or functions of neuronal circuits containing inhibition, two basic motifs repeatedly emerge: feed-forward and feedback. In the locust, it was proposed that a subset of lateral horn interneurons (LHNs), provide feed-forward inhibition onto Kenyon cells (KCs) to ...
Abstract In recent years, acupuncture analgesia (AA) in the west has been restricted mainly to the treatment of chronic pain and not used for surgical procedures, except for demonstration purposes. In some Western countries, however, AA is used in combination with nitrous oxide, sufficient N2O be...
“disease-in-a-dish” models. This technology may enable personalized disease modeling that will become an important part of precision medicine. Furthermore, the development of clustered regulatory interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas9 endonuclease7,8,9enabled the creation of genetically ...
