The inner plexiform layer is an area of the retina that is made up of a dense reticulum of fibrils formed by interlaced dendrites of retinal ganglion cells and cells […]

The ciliary processes are formed by the inward folding of the various layers of the choroid i.e. the choroid proper and the lamina basalis and are received between corresponding foldings […]

The corneal epithelium (epithelium corneæ anterior layer) is made up of epithelial tissue and covers the front of the cornea. It acts as a barrier to protect the cornea resisting […]

The substantia propria (or stroma of cornea) is fibrous tough unyielding and perfectly transparent. It is composed of about 200 flattened lamellæ (plates of collagen fibrils) superimposed one on another. […]

Anterior proper fasciculus fasciculus proprius or fasiculus proprii (anterior basis bundle) is the remaining fibers of the anterior funiculus.It consists of (a) longitudinal intersegmental fibers which arise from cells in […]

The posterior proper fasciculus (posterior ground bundle; posterior basis bundle) arises from cells in the posterior column; their axons bifurcate into ascending and descending branches which occupy the ventral part […]

The lateral proper fasciculus (lateral basis bundle) constitutes the remainder of the lateral column and is continuous in front with the anterior proper fasciculus. It consists chiefly of intersegmental fibers […]

In the human nervous system the temporopontine fibers a component of the corticopontine tract are lateral to the cerebrospinal fibers; they originate in the temporal lobe and end in the […]
