Summary Introduction
To determine: The symptoms that might result when a blood clot blocked a cerebral blood vessel supplying a small region of the right cerebral cortex just in front of the central sulcus in the deep groove between the hemispheres.
Introduction: Neurons, also known as nerve cells, are the fundamental unit of the brain and nervous system. They are electrically excitable cells that aid in communication with neighboring cells through special junctions known as synapses. Alpha and gamma neurons are essential for contraction and relaxation of the muscle fibers.
