Cerebellum – It can be found just below your cerebrum and behind the upper portion of your brain stem. This is the area at the base of your skull where your head meets your neck. It is primarily involved in coordinating movement and balance. It can also play a role in cognitive functions like language and attention.
-
Axon (Nerve Fibre) – Is the portion of a nerve cell (neuron) that carries nerve impulses away from the cell body. Most axons of vertebrates are enclosed in a myelin sheath, which increases the speed of impulse transmission.
-
Cerebrum – The largest and uppermost portion of the brain. The cerebrum consists of the cerebral hemispheres and accounts for two-thirds of the total weight of the brain. One hemisphere, usually the left, is functionally dominant, controlling language and speech. The other hemisphere interprets visual and spatial information.

Smooth muscle – also called involuntary muscle, is a muscle that shows no cross stripes under microscopic magnification. It consists of narrow spindle-shaped cells with a single, centrally located nucleus. Smooth muscle tissue contracts slowly and automatically. It constitutes much of the musculature of internal organs and the digestive system.

Skeletal muscle tissue – Make up between 30 to 40% of your total body mass. They’re located between bones and serve a variety of functions, including:
• Chewing and swa…

White fibrous tissue – is dense regular connective tissue that has a silvery white colour/appearance and is physically tough, yet pliable. It consists of fibroblasts interspersed among many collagen fibres which are often aligned in the same direction, forming a mechanically strong structure. It is present in many locations throughout the body,…[Read more]

Adipose tissue – is a specialized connective tissue consisting of lipid-rich cells called adipocytes. As it comprises about 20-25% of total body weight in healthy individuals, the main function of adipose tissue is to store energy in the form of lipids (fat).

Elastic cartilage – sometimes referred to as yellow fibrocartilage, is a type of cartilage that provides both strength and elasticity to certain parts of the body, such as the ears. Within the outer ear, it provides the skeletal basis of the pinna, as well as the lateral region of the external auditory meatus.

Simple Squamous Epithelium – The cell types of this epithelium are flat and thin. Areas where this epithelium is found include the skin, capillary walls, glomeruli, pericardial lining, pleural lining, peritoneal cavity lining, and alveolar lining. This type of tissue is great in lining areas where passive diffusion of gases occur.

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium – The nuclei for this epithelium are found at different levels, giving a false impression that the cells are in many layers. All of the cells reach a basement membrane though their nuclei will lie in different levels. They are mainly located in larger respiratory airways of the nasal cavity, trachea and b…[Read more]

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium – This type of Epithelium is composed of 1 layer of cells and are roughly equal in height and breadth with a spherical and centrally placed nuclei. They are usually located in secretory ducts of small glands and kidney tubules. Their main function is allow secretion and absorbtion.

Dr. Bernard runs a Youtube channel called “Chubbyemu”. Here, he talks about absurd patient cases in a creative way that is interesting for me. He formats his videos in a way that the average viewer is able to understand the medical terms he uses in the video. He also inserts funny sections in his videos that cater to the meme-ish culture that is…[Read more]
