Fissure filling is a treatment that improves the apparent clarity of a gemstone by removing air and replacing it with a substance that has a refractive index similar to the host material. Many different substances may be used to fill fissures: oils, resins, waxes, glass, and various polymers, to name a few.
Cerebral autoregulation is a process in mammals, which aims to maintain adequate and stable cerebral blood flow.hile most systems of the body show some degree of autoregulation, the brain is very sensitive to over-and underperfusion. Cerebral autoregulation plays an important role in maintaining an appropriate blood flow to that region.
The cerebral cortex plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness. The human cerebral cortex is 2 to 4 millimetres (0.079 to 0.157 in) thick. In large mammals, the cerebral cortex is folded, giving a much greater surface area in the confined volume of the skull.A fold or ridge in the cortex is termed a gyrus (plural gyri) and a groove or fissure is termed a sulcus (plural sulci).he cerebral cortex plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness.
