A pancreatectomy can be performed as a treatment for pancreatic cancer, pancreatic tumors (pre-malignant), chronic pancreatitis, or when the pancreas has been severely damaged by injury. Removing part of or the entire pancreas may cause a loss of pancreatic digestive enzyme production, leading to EPI.
Question: When a nerve fiber is polarized, the concentration... When a nerve fiber is polarized, the concentrationof: A. sodium and potassiumions is higher on the inside of its membrane. B. sodium ions is higher on the inside of its membrane and potassium ions are higher on the outside.
(April 2014). In the peripheral nervous system, an afferent nerve fiber is the nerve fiber (axon) of an afferent neuron (sensory neuron). It is a long process (projection) extending far from the nerve cell body that carries nerve impulses from sensory receptors or sense organs toward the central nervous system.The opposite direction of neural activity is efferent conduction.In the nervous system there is a closed loop system of sensation, decision, and reactions. This process is carried out through the activity of afferent neurons (sensory neurons), interneurons, and efferent neurons (motor neurons).fferent neurons' somas are located in the ganglia of the peripheral nervous system, and the axons of these cells travel from ganglion to ganglion and lead back to the spinal cord. The majority of these are unipolar neurons in that they have a single axon leaving the cell body and is sent towards the sensory organ.
