An individual diagnosed with CMT has difficulty holding a cup because: a. The myelin in the motor neurons is damaged thereby preventing an impulse from moving along the axon b. The myelin in the sensory neurons is damaged thereby preventing an impulse from moving along the axon c. The dendrites in the motor neurons are damaged thereby preventing an impulse from moving along the axon d. The dendrites in the sensory neurons are damaged thereby preventing an impulse from moving along the axon

Dissection

Dissection is the process of cutting up the tissue of a dead or live animal or plant, to do anatomical studies and surgical treatments. The purpose of dissection is to learn more about the overall structure of organs and organ systems and thereby understand the physiology of the organism.
