A splanchnic nerve is a type of visceral nerve that carries signals from the bodys internal organs to the brain. These nerves primarily function in the involuntary control of bodily processes such as heart rate, digestion, and blood flow. They are part of the autonomic nervous system which regulates the functions of the internal organs without conscious awareness.
Optical Drive
-
In the real world, optical refers to vision, or the ability to see. In the computer world, however, optical refers to lasers, which can see and read data on optical discs. These discs include CDs and DVDs, which are made up of millions of small bumps and dips. Optical drives have lasers that read these bumps and dips as ones and zeros, which the computer can understand.
Some common types of optical drives include CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RW, and Blu-ray drives. CD and DVD writers, such as CD-R and DVD-R drives use a laser to both read and write data on the discs. The laser used for writing the data is much more powerful than the laser that reads the data, as it burns the bumps and dips into the disc. While optical drives can spin discs at very high speeds, they are still significantly slower than hard drives, which store data magnetically. However, because optical media is inexpensive and removable, it is the most common format used for distributing computer software.
