Osmosis 109-GP-5
In medicine, osmosis is the directed flow of particles through a selective or semi-permeable separating layer. Osmosis is often described...
Flow 106-GP-2
Flow means a steady movement of a liquid, gas or electricity (in terms of membrane potentials) steadily and continuously in a current or...
Blood supply of the spinal cord 242-N-PA-33
Starting from the vertebral arteries, the aorta and the iliac arteries, the following 5 main supply arteries of the spinal cord arise:...
Intracranial pressure volume relationship 243-N-PA-34
The relationship between pressure and volume within the intracranial cavity (skull) is determined by the low compliance (volumetric...
Regulation of cerebral blood flow 244-N-PA-35
Besides determination by pressure gradients and vascular resistance, cerebral blood flow is tightly regulated by the arterial partial...
