Silene marmorensis a terminal cyme of flowers at the top of the stem, and some flowers may occur in the leaf axils. Each flower has a hairy, veined calyx of fused sepals. The flowers bloom at night, the five pinkish or green-tinged petals opening at the tip of the calyx. This species is threatened by logging operations and other degradation of its habitat. Silene marmorensis Silene marmorensis is a rare species of flowering plant in the pink family known by the common names Marble Mountain catchfly, Marble Mountain campion, and Somes Bar campion. It is endemic to the southern Klamath Mountains of
Calyx of Held the calyx is not only characteristic, but pragmatic in terms of auditory chronological development. As a synapse, the calyx of Held follows a mechanism similar to other synapses. A thorough description can be found under neurotransmission. Calcium influx for the immature calyx of Held is mediated by N-, P/Q-, and R-type calcium channels; however upon maturation only P/Q-type calcium channels become dominant. Upon calcium influx, the immature calyx of Held is highly reactive due to its small calcium buffer ability – this causes the release of glutamate even at low levels of calcium influx. Within the terminal, as with other
