| 설명 | 중추신경계를 제외한 나머지 모든신경을 말함. 중추신경계는 뇌와 척수를 말하며, 그외 나머지 신경들로써 실제적으로 각 기관이나 사지 말단에 신경이 분포하며, 자극을 전달하는 일을 하는 신경을 모두 통틀어 말초신경이라 한다. 뇌에서 바로 나와 분포하는 뇌신경과 척수에서 기시하는 척수신경도 모두 말초신경에 해당한다. 또한 말초신경에는 각종 자율신경을 담당하는 교감신경, 부교감신경도 포함된다. |

| 영문 | optic nerve | 한글 | 시각신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 시각을 인지하는 신경. 이 신경은 단지 감각신경으로서만 작용한다. 따라서 어떤 사물을 따라 눈을 움직일 수 있는 것은 이 시각신경과는 무관하다(이것은 눈돌림신경(oculomotor nerve)에 의해 가능하다). 또한 시각신경은 고위중추신경계인 뇌에서 직접 분지하므로 손상시 재생은 불가능하며, 이에 대한 치료법은 없다. |

|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 여러 기관들의 서로간 상호연결체계가 바로 신경계이다. 이러한 신경계는 각 신경세포들에 의해 이루어지고 있으며, 여기에는 중추신경계(central nerve system: CNS)와 말초신경계(peripheral nerve system: PNS)가 있다. 중추신경계란 뇌와 척수를 말하며, 말초신경계는 12쌍의 뇌신경(cranial nerve: 뇌에서 기시하여 주로 얼굴부위와 목 부위에 분포한다)과 31쌍의 척수신경(spinal nerve: spinal cord에서 각기 양쪽으로 쌍을 이루어 나오는데 주로 목이하부위의 신체 각 부분으로 분포하게 된다)으로 구성되어 있다. 또한 말초신경계에는 앞에서 말한 뇌신경과 척수신경외에 자율신경계가 존재한다. 자율신경계는 다시 교감신경과 부교감신경으로 나뉘어져 서로간의 올바른 상호작용으로 몸속에서 여러 가지 작용을 수행한다. |

| group velocity | <radiobiology> This is derived from the dispersion relation as Vgroup = dw/dk, the group velocity is the rate at which modulations or information within a wave travel through a given medium. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| critical velocity | <biology> The maximum speed a device or organism can sustain over a specified distance or length of time, or the maximum velocity against which device or organism can sustain a position over a specified length of time. <marine biology> Velocity through which a fish will not swim, creating a velocity barrier. (09 Oct 1997) |
| sedimentation velocity | The rate of movement of a substance, typically a macromolecule, in centrifugation; these centrifugation studies provide data on the structure of the macromolecule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| steady-state velocity | The velocity of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in which, over the time course of the study, the concentration of any enzyme species is constant (i.e., for an enzyme-substrate binary complex, ES, d[ES]/dt&apprxeq;00; for this to hold true, the total enzyme concentration must be much less than the initial substrate concentration. Synonym: steady-state rate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| drift velocity | <radiobiology> Characteristic velocity at which the centre of a particle's orbit (guiding centre) drifts when drift motion (see above) occurs. (09 Oct 1997) |
| initial velocity | The rate of a reaction, e.g., an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, at the early stages of the reaction such that the product(s) concentrations have not risen to a level to significantly affect the observable rate; typically, initial velocities are observed when less than 10% of the reaction's approach toward equilibrium has occurred. Synonym: initial rate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thermal velocity | <radiobiology> Average speed (magnitude of velocity) of a particle at a given temperature (in a Maxwellian velocity distribution). (09 Oct 1997) |
| electron velocity | <physics> The rate of motion of an electron. (05 Aug 1998) |
| fish velocity | The velocity at the location occupied by a fish, measured at the fish's snout. (09 Oct 1997) |
| force-velocity curve | The relationship between isotonic velocity of shortening and afterload for a contracting muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aberrant ventricular conduction | Abnormal intraventricular conduction of a supraventricular beat, especially where surrounding beats are normally conducted. Synonym: ventricular aberration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accelerated conduction | Any pathologically increased speed of conduction; usually occurs between the atrium and ventricles as in the Wolff-Parkinson-White and Lown-Ganong-Levine syndromes; such accelerated pathways provide the bases for particular forms of reentry tachycardia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| A-H conduction time | Forward conduction of the cardiac impulse from atria to ventricles via the A-V node or any bypass tract, represented in the electrocardiogram by the P-R interval. P-H conduction time is from the onset of the P wave to the first high frequency component of the His bundle electrogram (normally 119 ± 38 msec); A-H conduction time is from the onset of the first high frequency component of the atrial electrogram to the first high frequency component of the His bundle electrogram (normally 92 ± 38 msec); P-A conduction time is from the onset of the P wave to the onset of the atrial electrogram (normally 27 ± 18 msec).

| air conduction | In relation to hearing, the transmission of sound to the inner ear through the external auditory canal and the structures of the middle ear. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anomalous conduction | Conduction of cardiac electrical impulses through any abnormal pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
