"Rhonchial" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Haven't sounded since 9th grade health class... The rhonchial is a type of sound made when air passes through clogged airways that narrow, like when you have a cold or asthma. A rhonchial sound is often described as a loud, wheezy, or squeaking sound that can be heard when a person speaks or breathes.
In biology, a rhombomere is a repeating segment of the hindbrain in vertebrate embryos. During the early stages of development, the hindbrain is divided into seven or eight clusters of neurons, called rhombomeres, which will later differentiate into different parts of the brain. Each rhombomere is responsible for the development of specific neural circuits and cranial nerves.
A zoological term!<br><br>A rhombomere is a segment of the neural crest, a part of the embryo's neural tube. In chordates, including vertebrates, the neural crest is a region on either side of the neural plate that gives rise to various cell types, including neurons, glial cells, and pigment cells.<br><br>In the developing embryo, the neural crest differentiates into rhombomeres, which are a series of repeating modules or segments that eventually give rise to various cranial and spinal nerves, as well as some non-neural tissues.<br><br>Each rhombomere corresponds to a specific level of the developing nervous system and is delaminated from the neural tube, ultimately resulting in the formation of distinct neural structures and cranial nerves in the adult nervous system.<br><br>Rhombomeres play a crucial role in the patterning and development of the enteric nervous system, the nervous system of the gastrointestinal tract, and the formation of various cranial nerves, including the cranial nerves III, V, VII, IX, X, and XI.
A rhombuses is a type of quadrilateral where all four sides are of equal length, and opposite angles are equal.
