Answer to Question 1

The targets of the autonomic nervous system's motor neurons include the smooth muscle cells as well as the cardiac muscle (heart muscle) and pacemaker cells (the specialized heart cells that create the heart's rhythms and therefore regulate its pace of contraction).

Answer to Question 2

The limbic system was first proposed by James Papez in 1937 and later extended by Paul MacLean as the brain's neural circuit for emotion. The system includes interconnected phylogenically primitive nuclei and parts of the neocortex that form a circle (a border or limbus) around the inner core of the brain. These structures include the hippocampus, the thalamus, parts of the hypothalamus, the amygdala, the pre-frontal cortex, and other structures such as the cingulated gurus.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Human neurons are so small that they require a microscope in order to be seen. However, some neurons can be up to 3 feet long, such as those that extend from the spinal cord to the toes.

There used to be a metric calendar, as well as metric clocks. The metric calendar, or "French Republican Calendar" divided the year into 12 months, but each month was divided into three 10-day weeks. Each day had 10 decimal hours. Each hour had 100 decimal minutes. Due to lack of popularity, the metric clocks and calendars were ended in 1795, three years after they had been first marketed.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
