  2. Complex cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_cell

    Complex cells receive inputs from a number of simple cells. Their receptive field is therefore a summation and integration of the receptive fields of many input simple cells, although some input is directly received from the LGN. [4] The manner through which simple cells are able to make up complex cells is not fully understood.

  3. Golgi's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi's_method

    Drawing by Camillo Golgi of a hippocampus stained with the silver nitrate method Drawing of a Purkinje cell in the cerebellum cortex done by Santiago Ramón y Cajal, clearly demonstrating the power of Golgi's staining method to reveal fine detail. Golgi's method is a silver staining technique that is used to visualize nervous tissue under light ...

  4. CW complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CW_complex

    A regular CW complex is a CW complex whose gluing maps are homeomorphisms. Accordingly, the partition of X is also called a regular cellulation. A loopless graph is represented by a regular 1-dimensional CW-complex. A closed 2-cell graph embedding on a surface is a regular 2-dimensional CW-complex.

  5. Golgi apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus

    The Golgi apparatus (/ ˈ ɡ ɒ l dʒ i /), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. [1] Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.

  6. Nuclear pore complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_pore_complex

    The nuclear pore complex (NPC), is a large protein complex giving rise to the nuclear pore. Nuclear pores are found in the nuclear envelope that surrounds the cell nucleus in eukaryotic cells. The nuclear envelope is studded by a great number of nuclear pores that give access to various molecules, to and from the nucleoplasm and the cytoplasm.

  7. Major histocompatibility complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_histocompatibility...

    The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a large locus on vertebrate DNA containing a set of closely linked polymorphic genes that code for cell surface proteins essential for the adaptive immune system. These cell surface proteins are called MHC molecules. Its name comes from its discovery during the study of transplanted tissue ...

  8. Cellular homology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_homology

    The n-dimensional sphere S n admits a CW structure with two cells, one 0-cell and one n-cell.Here the n-cell is attached by the constant mapping from to 0-cell. Since the generators of the cellular chain groups (,) can be identified with the k-cells of S n, we have that (,) = for =,, and is otherwise trivial.
