  - cross the cell to form the mitotic spindle
  - project to the contralateral olfactory bulb by way of the anterior commissure
* absorbs large amounts of water, and water-soaked fiber bulks up and softens the stool
  - the fluid and makes stools more formed if the problem is diarrhea
* absorbs water and carries it out of the body which can cause dehydration
  - helps move food and waste through the gastrointestinal tract more quickly
  - lends bulk to the intestinal contents
  - as it moves through the digestive tract
  - water, so stools are naturally larger, softer and easier to be moved through

* arise from both olivary complexes but primarily from the contralateral complex.
* attracts and binds water in the large bowel.
* binds cholesterol and can help in cholesterol reduction
  - resulting in lower cholesterol levels
  - to estrogen in the bowel and eliminates it
  - with and eliminates cancer-causing substances in our bodies
* burn differently when they are in a cloth structure.
* can be an important component of some beverage products
  - bent around obstacles and still transmit light
  - helpful because it improves how the intestines work
  - break and loose particles can be inhaled
  - pass through the alveoli and migrate to the pleura, the lining of the chest cavity
* carries bile and fat out of the body.
* cleans out mucus from the intestinal tract and lowers cholesterol.
* comes from multiple sources
  - plant foods only, and includes breads, cereals, legumes, fruits, and vegetables
* comes in both soluble and insoluble forms
  - thousands of forms
* constitute protein most resembling cellulose.
* contain cellulose, hemicellulose, beta-glucans, and pectins which are all polysaccharides.
* contributes bulk, absorbs water, and speeds transit through the intestines
  - in several ways to aid in weight loss
* crimp increases bulk and cover and facilitates interlocking of staple fibers in spun yarns
  - retains resin and resists resin drain-out
* decreases the transit time through the intestine.
* encourages healthy digestion and can help prevent constipation.
* exit the spinal cord at their respective levels.
* facilitates detoxification and bolsters our natural defenses against parasites and fungi
  - proper digestion
* feeds and maintains a healthy intestinal flora.
* forms sheaths.
* get thinner and breaks - that creates lines on the skin surface.
* grown in submerged culture often are smaller in diameter and have thicker cell walls.
* has additional benefits
  - important benefits
* has many benefits
  - net effects
  - positive effects
  - profound effects
  - roles
  - same health benefits
* helps address the concern about the prevalence of obesity in pets
  - digestion as well as elimination
  - exercise the digestive track and keep it clean and healthy
  - in the prevention of constipation
* helps keep cholesterol levels in check and plays a role in preventing colon cancer
  - digested food bulky and soft as it passes through the colon
* helps lower blood cholesterol levels
  - cancer and heart disease risks, studies show
* helps lower cholesterol and control blood sugars
  - rates, which are one of the major risk factors for heart disease
  - cholesterol, reducing the risk of heart disease
* helps prevent and manage constipation
  - bowel cancer
  - constipation as well as heart disease, diabetes, and obesity
  - hairballs and other serious intestinal problems
  - hemorrhoids
  - prevents constipation and hemorrhoids by retaining water in the stool
  - propel wastes through the digestive tract and safely out of the colon
* helps reduce blood cholesterol levels, cutting heart disease risk
  - calorie intake and fat storage
  - toxins in the body
* helps regulate blood sugar levels as well
  - the metabolism, controls body weight and supports a healthy, active colon
  - sustain blood sugar levels and promotes bowel regularity
  - to prevent the recycling of liver bile
* helps to reduce bad cholesterol
  - blood sugar surges
  - the risk of heart disease and some forms of cancer
  - regulate bowel function and relieve constipation
  - waste pass through the body more quickly, preventing the hard stools of constipation
* includes cotton
  - insoluble fiber
* increase the amount of energy needed to break the fused silica material
  - modulus of the matrix material
* increases bulk and water in the intestinal contents
  - dietary bulk, making chewing more work, and giving a feeling of fullness
* interferes with absorption of numerous medications.
* interrupts most steps of the estrogen pathway.
* is cord
  - fabric
  - solid objects
* lowers cholesterol and is linked to lower incidences of some cancers and heart disease.
* naturally occur in both plants and animals.
* obtained from dried palm leaves are dyed with colorful extracts of wild plants, bark and mud.
* offers protection.
* performs functions
  - same functions
* plays a key role in the health of the digestive system
  - an important role in colon health, helping to rid the body of toxins and adding bulk
* project, after decussation, into the red nucleus and ventral lateral nucleus of the thalamus
  - nucleus and ventrolateral nucleus of the thalamus
* provide important cleansing attributes which aid in the digestive process.
* provides benefits
* reduces estrogen levels
  - the absorption of most minerals
* reduces the risk of colon problems and infections
  - heart disease, constipation, diverticulitis, and diabetes
  - time it takes for wastes to pass through the intestinal tract
* requires removals.
* resist rapid digestion in the intestinal tract.
* run oblique to the long axis of the muscle and approach the tendon from one direction.
* show helical symmetry rather than the three-dimensional symmetry taken on by crystals.
* slows down the rate at which glucose is absorbed from food into the bloodstream.
* slows the digestive process so that absorption of glucose proceeds more slowly
  - intestinal absorption of sugar and helps to level out blood sugar levels
* softens when it absorbs water.
* stimulate the digestive system.
* stimulates peristalsis.
* swell in the water, and as they rub against each other the impurities start to fall away.
* synapse in the submandibular ganglion, and post-synaptic fibers then enter the gland.
* takes time to get in the ground.
* tends to slow down digestion, thus preventing sudden spikes of blood glucose.
* travel from the basal ganglia and cerebellum down to the spinal cord.
* travels through the digestive system better with liquid.
* used in a satin weave include rayon, polyester, acetate and silk
  - include carbon, aramid, glass, polyethylene, and silica
* works by drawing fluids from the body to add bulk to the stool.
+ Optics
  * While optics is an old science, new things are still being discovered in it. Scientists have learned how to make light travel through a thin optical fiber made of glass or plastic. Light can go long distances in a fiber. Fibers are used to carry phone calls and the Internet between cities.
