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 great biological importance of photoreceptors is that they convert light (visible electromagnetic radiation) into signals that can stimulate biological processes. To be more specific, photoreceptor proteins in the cell absorb photons, triggering a change in the cell's membrane potential.The two classic photoreceptor cells are rods and cones, each contributing information used by the visual system to form a representation of the visual world, sight.o be more specific, photoreceptor proteins in the cell absorb photons, triggering a change in the cell's membrane potential.
