Aphasia is an acquired language disorder caused by damage in one or more parts of the brain, resulting in deficits in expressive and receptive language and can affect other language-based skills. Damage to the brain that results in aphasia can be caused by several events or neurological conditions, but the most common cause of aphasia is a cerebrovascular accident, or a stroke. People of all ages can acquire aphasia, but the most common sufferers are middle-aged to elderly individuals who have…

Amnesia or amnesic syndrome, is a shortage in memory caused by damage in the brain. The person with amnesia won’t be able to remember certain things. The extent of the damage determines whether the memory is fully or partially lost. Though having no sense of who you are is a common plot device in movies and television, real-life amnesia generally doesn't cause a loss of self-identity. Instead, people with amnesia are usually aware and know who they are, but may have trouble learning new…

1. INTRODUCTION Our mind comprises of 100 billion neurons and a trillion glia [1], which is a conservative structure of tissue measuring approx 3 lakes. The mind houses our mindfulness, our gathered encounters isolated and broke down and interpreted into a code by combined fleeting projections, and put away in a system including the working of cerebrum. Stroke has enhanced our present comprehension of the cerebrum more than some other ailment. There are numerous routes in which neurological…

On November 25, 1901, Karl Deter, husband of patient, Auguste Deter, enrolled her in a mental institution called Asylum for the Insane and Epileptic in Frankurt, Germany where she was to be examined for multiple symptoms that showed signs of the deterioration of memory. Deter, 51, had been suffering from things such as, hallucinations, unpredictable behavior, and paranoia. She was also missing her sense of orientation and experienced lack of communication skills. The first person to examine…

Alzheimer’s disease and its Effects on Senior Citizens “The number of Americans with Alzheimer 's disease and other dementias will grow each year as the size and proportion of the U.S. population age 65 and older continues to increase.”(2015 Alzheimer’s disease) There are so many senior citizens in the world that are struggling with Alzheimer’s disease. Some senior citizens are aware of it, but most aren’t. The senior citizens that are aware that they have Alzheimer’s are lost, and confused…

is affected by electrical activity between neurons. A genetically modified indicator of this kind can provide a real time account of how the chemical signals are being received by the membrane and translated into action potentials during depolarization. Advancements in this field of representing membrane potential changes could lead to improved treatment for a variety of disorders affecting brain tissue and regulating electrical impulses between neurons. ASAP 1 can capture changes fluorescent…

loss of memory, or the inability to remember facts or events. We have two types of memories: the short-term (recent, new) and long-term (remote, old) memories. Short-term memory is programmed in a part of the brain called the temporal lobe, while long-term memory is stored throughout extensive nerve cell networks in the temporal and parietal lobes. In Alzheimer's disease, short-term memory storage is damaged first. inability to communicate effectively. The loss of ability to speak and write is…

3. Results 3.1. Bumblebees We recorded a total of 98 bumblebee individuals (Bombus sp.) comprising 13 species (Appendix A, Table A.1). Sixty-four individuals belonging to 12 species were identified in managed meadows, and 34 individuals belonging to 8 species in abandoned meadows. Three of the total species were cuckoo bumblebees (Bombus [Psithyrus] sp). Five species were classified as long-tongued and 8 species as short-tongued. Total species richness and number of long-tongued species were…

starfish or jellyfish. The brain is located in the head. It receives messages from other organs. The brain is the most complex organ. In a human, the cerebral cortex has more than a billion neurons. Each of these neurons are connected by synapses. These synapses are connected to several thousand other neurons. Neurons communicate with one another by sending messages through long fibers called axons. These axons send messages by sending pulses out. The function of the brain is to have control…
