That part of the brain is called the posterior superior temporal cortex ( pSTC ).

This is a deterioration of nerves in the spinal cord, starting in the posterior part of the cord.

Receptive aphasia, also known as Wernicke ’ s aphasia, fluent aphasia, or sensory aphasia, is a type of aphasia traditionally associated with neurological damage to Wernicke ’ s area in the brain, ( Brodmann area 22, in the posterior part of the superior temporal gyrus of the dominant hemisphere ).

It forms the posterior vagal trunk at the lower part of the esophagus and enters the diaphragm through the esophageal hiatus.

Primary ( true ) brain tumors are commonly located in the posterior cranial fossa in children and in the anterior two-thirds of the cerebral hemispheres in adults, although they can affect any part of the brain.

There is generally a single pair of gonads, including sperm-producing cells anteriorly, and producing ova from the posterior part.

Sharks have keen olfactory senses, located in the short duct ( which is not fused, unlike bony fish ) between the anterior and posterior nasal openings, with some species able to detect as little as one part per million of blood in seawater.

The posterior part of a male shark's pelvic fins are modified into a pair of intromittent organs called claspers, analogous to a mammalian penis, of which one is used to deliver sperm into the female.

In addition to its proximity to and association with the limbic system and the amygdala in particular, which plays a key role in emotional experience, the anterior cingulate cortex shares afferent and efferent pathways with a number of thalamic nuclei as well as the posterior cingulate and part of some parietal, frontal and supplementary motor cortex.

The posterior part of the arch presents above and behind a rounded edge for the attachment of the posterior atlantooccipital membrane, while immediately behind each superior articular process is a groove ( sulcus arteriae vertebralis ), sometimes converted into a foramen by a delicate bony spiculum which arches backward from the posterior end of the superior articular process.

The upper part of the former contains the submaxillary gland also known as the submandibular glands, which lies just below the posterior half of the body of the jaw.

Cervix in relation to upper part of vagina and posterior portion of uterus.

* Melanocyte – stimulating hormones ( MSHs ) or " intermedins ," as these are released by the pars intermedia, which is " the middle part "; adjacent to the posterior pituitary lobe, pars intermedia is a specific part developed from the anterior pituitary lobe.

Although rudimentary in humans ( and often considered part of the anterior pituitary ), the intermediate lobe located between the anterior and posterior pituitary is important to many animals.

The parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes-all located in the posterior part of the cortex-organize sensory information into a coherent perceptual model of our environment centered on our body image.

Posterior wall perforation leads to bleeding due to involvement of gastroduodenal artery that lies posterior to the 1st part of duodenum.

The thalamus is the largest structure deriving from the embryonic diencephalon, the posterior part of the forebrain situated between the midbrain and the cerebrum.

OBE-like experience has also been induced through stimulation of the posterior part of the right superior temporal gyrus in a patient.

There is also the simultaneous approximation of the walls of the pharynx to the posterior free border of the soft palate, which is carried out by the palatopharyngeus ( pharyngeal plexus — IX, X ) and the upper part of the superior constrictor ( pharyngeal plexus — IX, X ).

The last part of the body to become cold is the top of the head ( posterior fontanelle ).

On the posterior side, the gland is fixed to the cricoid and tracheal cartilage and cricopharyngeus muscle by a thickening of the fascia to form the posterior suspensory ligament of Berry.

The posterior cricoarytenoid muscles are extremely small, paired muscles that extend from the posterior cricoid cartilage to the arytenoid cartilages in the larynx.

The function of the cricoid cartilage is to provide attachments for the cricothyroid muscle, posterior cricoarytenoid muscle and lateral cricoarytenoid muscle muscles, cartilages, and ligaments involved in opening and closing the airway and in speech production.

The posterior edge of each lamina articulates with the cricoid cartilage inferiorly at a joint called the cricothyroid joint.

On the other hand, the temporary reduction in hypothalamic excitability through the injection of a barbiturate into the posterior hypothalamus causes a lessening in frequency and amplitude of cortical strychnine spikes until the hypothalamic excitability is restored.

Since electrical stimulation of the posterior hypothalamus produces the effects of wakefulness while stimulation of the anterior hypothalamus induces sleep, it may be said that the reactivity of the whole organism is altered by a change in the autonomic reactivity of the hypothalamus.

The posterior parietal cortex is responsible for combining and expressing positional information and relating it to movement.

This is because abstract concepts elicit greater brain activity in the inferior frontal gyrus and middle temporal gyrus compared to concrete concepts when concrete concepts elicit greater activity in the posterior cingulate, precuneus, fusiform gyrus, and parahippocampal gyrus.

In comparing the skulls of carnivores and herbivores, it can be seen that the shearing force of the temporalis is somewhat more important to carnivores, which have more room on the braincase ( this is not unrelated to carnivoran intelligence ) and commonly develop a sagittal crest ( running from posterior to anterior on the skull ), providing yet additional room for temporalis attachment.

It has a convex, elliptical surface and is divided into anterior and posterior lips.

Proper orientation of cilia via centriole positioning toward the posterior of embryonic node cells is critical for establishing left – right asymmetry during mammalian development.

Nonetheless, in most of the literature the stated place of the click is the anterior articulation ( called the release or influx ), while the manner is ascribed to the posterior articulation ( called the accompaniment or efflux ).

There is a close connection between machine learning and compression: a system that predicts the posterior probabilities of a sequence given its entire history can be used for optimal data compression ( by using arithmetic coding on the output distribution ), while an optimal compressor can be used for prediction ( by finding the symbol that compresses best, given the previous history ).

Expressive aphasia ( non-fluent aphasia ), also known as Broca's aphasia in clinical neuropsychology and agrammatic aphasia in cognitive neuropsychology, is caused by damage to, or developmental issues in the anterior regions of the brain, including ( but not limited to ) the left posterior inferior frontal gyrus or inferior frontal operculum known as Broca's area ( Brodmann area 44 and Brodmann area 45 ).

Among animals, fungi, and Choanozoa, which make up a group called the opisthokonts, there is a single posterior flagellum.

The superficial layer of posterior leg muscles is formed by the triceps surae and the plantaris.

The lesion involved in this syndrome is thought to be in the posterior thalamus on either side, or multiple areas of the right cerebral hemisphere.

* Brain: A small outgrowth of the ventral wall of the embryo brain from which the pars nervosa ( the posterior lobe ) of the pituitary gland develops is also called the infundibulum.

Any significant rise in plasma osmolality is detected by the hypothalamus, which communicates directly with the posterior pituitary gland.

However, the situation is not always so simple ; in cartilaginous fish and some amphibians, there is also a shorter duct, similar to the amniote ureter, which drains the posterior ( metanephric ) parts of the kidney, and joins with the archinephric duct at the bladder or cloaca.

The statistical support for each branch is 100 % bootstrap percentage and 100 % posterior probability, except where labeled, with bootstrap percentage followed by posterior probability.

Midwives are trained to handle certain more difficult deliveries, including breech births, twin births and births where the baby is in a posterior position, using non-invasive techniques.

The complexity penalty has a Bayesian interpretation as the negative log prior probability of,, in which case is the posterior probabability of.

While it is possible to define some arbitrary, ad hoc cost function, frequently a particular cost will be used, either because it has desirable properties ( such as convexity ) or because it arises naturally from a particular formulation of the problem ( e. g., in a probabilistic formulation the posterior probability of the model can be used as an inverse cost ).
