3. Damage to the ventral root causes the flaccid paralysis of the muscle served and muscle begins to atrophy. Why?
Homework Answers
Even at the stage of complete rest , a healthy muscle has a bit of tension in it. Due to this it doesn't feel feel flabby but resilient. The result of a lightly maintained flow of an asynchronous low frequency impulses from spinal cord, will be the palpable muscle firmness. The spinal cord help in generating a small contraction of a smaller skeletal muscle fibers along with a random degree of active tension.
The basic muscle tone is lost immediately when a the functioning
of the ventral roots is impaired. This also happens in cases when
the dorsal roots which have sensory fibers from the muscles get
damaged. Hence, the tone must and always should be
considered the property of reflex activity rather than the muscle
itself.
The result of weakness from disuse in some muscle atrophy happens
in any lesion. The losing of innervation to the muscles results in
Fasciculations and the atrophy is a pronounced
occurrence in many LMN lesions. These signify a complete damage in
any of the axons or in the anterior horn cells.

Canavan disease is an autosomal recessive disease that causes progressive damage to nerve cells in the brain. Symptoms such as mental retardation, loss of motor skills and abnormal muscle tone progress rapidly beginning in infancy. The disease is fatal with no cure, and death usually occurs before age 4. This disease is caused by mutations in the gene for aspartoacylase on chromosome 17. In the Ashkenazi Jewish population, 1 in 10,000 persons are born with the disease. Assuming that this...

The term teratogen refers to any environmental agent that causes damage during the prenatal period. 1. Why is it difficult to determine the effects of prenatal exposure to some environmental agents, such as drugs, diseases, and pollution? 2. Can genes influence the extent to which the developing organism is affected by teratotogens? 3. Generate a list of factors that might contribute to a developing babys susceptibility to the effects of teratogens.
