Which spinal segments have gray communicants? Which have white rami?

Expert Solution

Grey Ramus Communicants:

*Consist of dendrites and neuron cell bodies, unmyelinated axons, and neuroglia.

*Form an ''H'' shape in the center of the grey commissure within which cerebrospinal fluid-filled space called the central canal is located.

White Ramus Communicants:

*Consists primarily of myelinated axons which extend the length of the cord.

*Allows for various levels of the Central Nervous System to communicate

1.The polio virus can destroy the cells in the anterior horns of the spinal gray matter. Discuss the problems encountered if the anterior horns of the spinal gray matter are damaged. 2.Define nerve plexus, and list the major nerve plexuses. 3.Compression of which nerve produces the sensation that your lower limb has “fallen asleep”? please type it

What is gray matter? What is white matter? In the subcortical areas, what is the of neurons which aggregate together?

What is gray matter? What is white matter? In the subcortical areas, what is the of neurons which aggregate together? In the PNS, what is the name of neuros aggregate together? You need to remember the location and function of the major components of brains-1) basal ganglia 2) thalamus 3) hypothalamus 4) hippocampus 5) brain stem includes midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata.

Many taxpayers think the tax law is all black and white with no room for gray areas. What do you think? Explain your answer. Additionally, various tax services provide Internal Revenue Code (IRC) histories for researchers who need them. What value would this provide to researchers? Why would tax preparers need to review prior tax years' laws? Is this related to the perception of gray areas in tax law? Explain your answer in detail.

Please give the genus and species of each answer. 11. The colonies are typically large, gray-white and opaque on blood agar. Most strains recovered from clinical isolates are nonpigmented; colonies with a deep red pigmentation may be encountered. On MacConkey agar they appear nonpigmented after 24 hours but become lactose positive. The bacterial cells are gram-negative straight rods. The biochemical reactions are indole negative, methyl red negative, VP positive, motile, citrate positive, urease negative, and hydrogen sulfide negative ___________________________________________________________________________________ 12....

Please give the genus and species for each question. 1. The colonies are typically large, gray-white opaque colonies on blood agar. Some strains are beta hemolytic. On MacConkey agar the colonies appear red from fermentation of lactose in the medium. The bacterial cells are gram-negative straight rods. The biochemical reactions are indole positive, methyl red positive, voges proskauer negative and citrate negative. The microbe is (genus and species): 16.
