There are many organs and structures that we never think about in daily life but are critical for our living.
Here are the unknown heroes of our body!
Palmaris Longus muscle
“Even if not.” We have a muscle we can say. It is also called Palmaris Longus, in the inner part of our wrist, our sparrow finger and thumb combined with a fine muscle.
Interestingly, about 20 %of people do not have this muscle. Since he did not contribute to daily functions, he began to disappear evolutionally.
Lakrimal Plica
This small structure is a residue in the inner corner of our eyes, helping to drain the tears and “third eyelid” is a pink texture. While many mammals have a third eyelid that is full functional, people are in time.
Bartholin glands
Bartholin glands, a module of the female reproductive system, produce the fluid that provides vaginal lubricity. Many people have not even heard their names.
Lingual tonsiller
We can also call him immune defense behind the throat. It is mostly known as tonsils, but the Lingual tonsiller, which is behind our language, is a module of the immune system. The mission is to fight infections.
Arrector battery
When we are in the cold or scared, we have goose bumps, or the arrector battery muscles that provide it are tiny flat muscles connected to the hair follicles.
Evolutionally, our ancestors raised their bodies and helped them look greater than the defense of heat and threats.
Ceruminous cloths
The tiny factories that produce ear dirt are emeralds of ceruminous glands; To keep dust, germs and other Zananlı elements outside.
Vestigial tail
Did you know that our coccyx bone (coccyx) had a tail function in our ancestors once? Although it is no longer dysfunctional, it provides reinforcement for some muscles.
Prayer layer
We came to our last unknown place. The prayer layer is a thin layer of tissue in the cornea area of the eye, and he was discovered in 2013.
It is thought that it plays a valuable role in eye health by regulating the fluid flow in the cornea. With the presence of eye surgery and diseases, a new perspective was given.
Darwin’s tuberculle
Darwin’s tuberculle is a small, protruding structure located on the upper edge of some people’s ears. The structure, which is thought to be evolutionary residual, may remain from the era in which our ancestors have larger and more active ears. Nowadays, there is no random function, but it does not exist in everyone.
Meibomian glands
Meibomian glands on the sides of our eyelids secrete the oils that keep the eye surface moist. If they do not work properly, they can cause dry eye syndrome.
Mesenteric
Mesenteric is a membrane structure that connects the intestines to the abdominal wall and holds them in place. Although it is only seen as a connective tissue before, recent research shows that it provides blood flow to the intestines and plays a role in the immune system. In fact, scientists began to classify the semender as an independent organ.
Hiid bone
At the top of the neck, the small hlyid bone, which is quickly under the language, is the only bone that does not make joints with another bone of our body.
Language plays a critical role in swallowing and speaking functions. In fact, in medicine, breaking in cases of drowning is paid as a valuable finding.
Fascia
Another module that we do not realize the importance is fascia. Fasya, which is located in our body for a second skin, is a thin connective tissue that surrounds our muscles. It supports the body structure as it facilitates our movement.
Anterolateral bond
Anterolateral bond, a ligament in the knee joint and located in the middle of the thigh bone (femur) and a caval bone (tibia). The rediscovered in 2013 contributes to the stability of the knee and in particular, the knee from turning too much in sudden rotation movements.
NASAL KONKA
There is a filter in our nose and Nasal Konka is named. These curved structures on the inside of our nose undertake the mission of moisturizing and filtering the air. In case of allergies or colds, they can swell and make it difficult to breathe.
Peyer plaques
In our intestines, these structures, which are a module of our immune system, produce cells fighting against harmful germs. They are in the middle of the invisible heroes of our digestive system.
Sphenopalatin ganglion
This small border knot controls the expansion or contraction of the blood vessels in the nose. It can even cause migraine pain.
Pyramidalis muscle
Pyramidalis muscle; A small, triangular muscle located in front of the muscle rectus abdominis in the abdomen. His duty is to keep the connective tissue in the middle line called linea Alba by stretching the abdominal muscles. However, the function is so worthy that approximately 20 %of people do not have this muscle at all.
Limbus
The colorful part of our eyes (iris) and the white part (sclera) determine the end in the middle of the limbus, eye health is critical importance.
Jacobson organ
The Jacobson organ, which increases the smelling capabilities of some animals, is blunted in humans. It exists during the fetus era and then becomes functionless.
