Half-field asymmetries of either amplitude or latency of the visual evoked potentials (VEPs), consistent with a postchiasmal lesion, were present in only five out of 13 patients acutely. In only three of these did the abnormality persist at follow-up.
A vacuole (/ËvaekjuËoÊl/) ËvÃ¦kjuËoÊl is a-membrane bound organelle which is present in all plant and fungal cells and some, protist animal and bacterial. cellsacuoles also play a major role in autophagy, maintaining a balance between biogenesis (production) and degradation (or turnover), of many substances and cell structures in certain organisms. They also aid in the lysis and recycling of misfolded proteins that have begun to build up within the cell.
What does a vacuole do? A: Vacuoles vary in function between organisms and even within the same cell, but the most frequent use is the storage of water or nutrients. A vacuole is really a general-purpose, empty membrane organelle that is filled with whatever the cell needs to keep separate from the rest of the cytoplasm. As such, different vacuoles also store waste or even toxins, and some organisms have other uses for them.
