Outer nuclear layer do not present any cross-striation, but contain a pyriform nucleus, which almost completely fills the cell. From the inner extremity of the granule a thick process passes into the outer plexiform layer, and there expands into a pyramidal enlargement or foot plate, from which are given off numerous fine fibrils, that come in contact with the outer processes of the cone bipolars. Outer nuclear layer The outer nuclear layer (or layer of outer granules or external nuclear layer), is one of the layers of the vertebrate retina, the light-detecting portion of the eye. Like the inner nuclear layer, the outer
Development of the human cerebral cortex in this area is where neurons, that are created in the ventricular zone, migrate through in order to reach the cortical plate. This zone is only present during corticogenesis and eventually transforms into adult white matter. The ventricular and subventricular zones exist below the intermediate zone and communicate to other zones through cell signalling, also creating neurons destined to migrate to other areas in the cortex. The marginal zone, along with the cortical zone, make up the 6 layers that form the cortex. This zone is the predecessor for layer 1 of the cortex. Astrocytes form an outer limiting membrane
