The division of the autonomic nervous system that arises from spinal nerves T1 to L3 is the sympathetic division. This division is responsible for controlling involuntary body functions.
Sympathetic.
The sympathetic nervous system arises from spinal nerves T1 through L3. It is responsible for the fight-or-flight response, increasing heart rate, dilating the pupils, and releasing adrenaline in times of stress or danger.
The brachial plexus is formed by the spinal nerves C5-T1, while the lumbosacral plexus is formed by the spinal nerves L1-S4. These plexuses are networks of nerves that supply motor and sensory innervation to the upper and lower limbs, respectively.
plexuses
T1-12. These nerves enter from the thoracic or chest vertebrae.
The brachial plexus contains fibers from the ventral rami of the cervical spinal nerves (C5-C8) and the first thoracic spinal nerve (T1). These fibers combine to form the nerves that innervate the upper limb.
The thoracic spinal nerves (T1-T12) do not form plexuses like the cervical, brachial, lumbar, and sacral nerves. Instead, each thoracic spinal nerve tends to go directly to the tissues it supplies without forming complex networks.
The correct sequence of nerves that exit the spinal cord from superior to inferior are cervical (C1-C8), thoracic (T1-T12), lumbar (L1-L5), sacral (S1-S5), and coccygeal (Co1).
There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves that exit the vertebral column: 8 cervical (C1-C8), 12 thoracic (T1-T12), 5 lumbar (L1-L5), 5 sacral (S1-S5), and 1 coccygeal (Co).
The pectoralis minor muscle is innervated by the medial pectoral nerve, which arises from the medial cord of the brachial plexus (C8-T1).
The brachial plexus supplies motor and sensory innervation to the upper limb. It is formed by the ventral rami of the spinal nerves C5-T1, and its branches include the musculocutaneous, median, ulnar, radial, and axillary nerves. These nerves control the muscles and provide sensation to the shoulder, arm, forearm, and hand.
