  2. Glide reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glide_reflection

    A typical example of glide reflection in everyday life would be the track of footprints left in the sand by a person walking on a beach. Frieze group nr. 6 (glide-reflections, translations and rotations) is generated by a glide reflection and a rotation about a point on the line of reflection. It is isomorphic to a semi-direct product of Z and C 2.

  3. Neural basis of self - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_basis_of_self

    The cortical midline structure is extremely important in the understanding of the self, especially during the task of self-reflection. Many researchers believe that self-reference plays a role in the expression of psychoses. The disturbance of the individual's self may be underlying the manifestation of these psychoses.

  4. Reflex arc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_arc

    In a reflex arc, an action potential can bypass the brain for processing and uses dedicated neural pathways for faster processing. When a stimulus (A) is encountered, the signal from that stimulus will travel up the sensory neuron (B, in green) to the spinal column (C).

  6. Reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex

    In biology, a reflex, or reflex action, is an involuntary, unplanned sequence or action [1] and nearly instantaneous response to a stimulus. [2] [3]The simplest reflex is initiated by a stimulus, which activates an afferent nerve.

    The following diagram is provided as an overview of and topical guide to the human nervous system: Human nervous system. Human nervous system – the part of the human body that coordinates a person's voluntary and involuntary actions and transmits signals between different parts of the body.

  9. Neural adaptation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_adaptation

    Neural receptor cells that process and receive stimulation go through constant changes for mammals and other living organisms to sense vital changes in their environment. Some key players in several neural systems include Ca 2+ ions (see Calcium in biology ) that send negative feedback in second messenger pathways that allow the neural receptor ...
