Tandem t:slim: 300 units; Due to the larger insulin reservoir, the t:flex has an expanded âbumpâ on the back side (as seen below), which Tandem tells us doesnât add much in size to the new device but does add a little weight to it overall. Still, it remains smaller than even the current Medtronic 5-series pump that holds 300 units.
Good overview! I'm in the process of doing a project on the nephron for my anatomy class, and this is a really good overview. I'd just like to add one thing -- there's also a nephron loop, which is the part of the nephron shaped like a âUâ that is made up of a descending loop, an ascending limb, and a descending limb.
What are neurons? What is the brain made of? The bulk of the brain is made up of structural cells termed glial cells and astrocytes. Lying in amongst these cells are neurons, specialized cells that conduct electrical impulses along their processes. It has been estimated that the average human brain contains about 100 billion neurons and, on average, each neuron is connected to 1000 other neurons. This results in the generation of vast and complex neural networks that are the mainstay of the brain's processing capabilities.
