what part of the brain functions the protective bone around the central nervous system?

---

Not entirely sure what you're asking.

What bone protects the central nervous system? The skull.
What part of the brain works in relation to the skull? The meninges (particularly the dura matter and the septum).  (+ info)

A cluster of neural cell bodies in the central nervous system is best described as ?

---

Julisa K,
Whilst I am not usually in the habit of providing test or exam answers, I will give you this information in the hope that you may learn and do further research. Nucleus is the name given to a cluster of cell bodies WITHIN the central nervous system. In the peripheral nervous system, which is OUTSIDE the central nervous system, collections of nerve cell bodies are called ganglia. Gray matter is the name given to the portion of the vertebrate central nervous system composed primarily of densely packaged neuronal cell bodies and dendrites.




ALL ANSWERS SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY RESEARCHED, IN ANY FORUM AND ESPECIALLY IN THIS ONE. - MANY ANSWERS ARE FLAWED.

It is extremely important to obtain an accurate diagnosis before trying to find a cure. Many diseases and conditions share common symptoms.

you baby will be able to feel pain by 9 weeks gestation.
Week 3 of gestation
The brain, spinal cord, and heart begin to develop
The gastrointestinal tract begins to develop
Weeks 4 to 5
Arm and leg buds become visible
Brain develops into five areas and some cranial nerves are visible
Eyes and ear structures begin to form
Formation of tissue that develops into the vertebra and some other bones
Further development of the heart which now beats at a regular rhythm
Movement of rudimentary blood through the main vessels
Week 6
Arms and legs have grown longer, and foot and hand areas can be distringuished
Hands and feet have fingers and toes (digits), but may still be webbed
Brain continues to form
Lungs begin to form
Week 7
Nipples and hair follicles form
Elbows and toes visible
All essential organs have begun to form
Week 8
Eyelids are more developed
External features of the ear begin to take their final shape

how do heroin withdrawal effects the central nervous system?

---

Does it stimulate or depresses during withdrawal. and the same question goes for alcohol
An earlier study conducted by Drs. Rolley E. Johnson, Jerome H. Jaffe, and Paul J. Fudala in NIDA's intramural research program in Baltimore also found that buprenorphine was as effective as methadone in maintaining patient participation in an opiate addiction treatment program. In the randomized study, 162 patients were given fixed daily doses of 8 mg of buprenorphine or 60 or 20 mg of methadone over a 17-week treatment period. Treatment retention rates for the three groups of patients were 42 percent, 32 percent, and 20 percent, respectively.

However seems that yet Methadone is the only "well known" treatment at the moment.

peripheral nervous system and central nervous system?

---

I seen my neurologist today and he said he can tell me somethings but i have to wait until my test results from the brain mapping and scan to come back to get more detail. Well i went to see him for complications from meningits and he said that the virus usually only effects the central nervous system but in some people if they have a bad case it can also effect the peripheral nervous system as well as the central nervous system and in my case it has. What does that mean? what does the peripheral nervous system control?
which one effects memory and speech? cuz thats also effected
the central nervous system is your brain and spinal chord, your peripheral nervous system is the nerves that run through the rest of your body, it effects physical sensations, and muscle control.  (+ info)

How does THC affect the central nervous system?

---

he objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the acute administration of marijuana (MJ) on cardiovascular (CV) function and CNS pharmacokinetics (PK) of [15O]water in occasional (O) versus chronic (C) MJ users. Each subject received four injections of [15O]water (one prior and three postsmoking) on two occasions in which they received active or placebo MJ. For each injection, measures of CV function and CNS PK [15O]water were made. Postsmoking, MJ influenced all measured CV and [15O]water PK parameters. C users reported significantly lower "highness" and smaller heart rate (HR) changes, which resulted in reduced rate pressure product (RPP) changes compared to O users, even though {Delta}9-tetrahydrocannabinol levels were higher, whereas changes in blood pressure (BP), arrival time, and [15O]water concentration were not significantly different between the groups. Significant CV changes resulted in changes in the whole-body distribution of cardiac output rather than changes in cerebral blood flow. Chronic MJ use produces tolerance to the HR increases induced by acute MJ smoking compared to changes observed in occasional users, without changing the effects on BP and [15O]water PK.  (+ info)
