What happens when dorsal root is damaged?

If the damage is severe enough the muscle which the ventral root ultimately innervates would be unable to move i.e. paralyzed.


What would happen if the ventral root of a spinal nerve were damage or transected?

There are a number of things that would happen if the ventral root of a spinal nerve were damage or transected, This would mainly cause the loss of the sensory function and there would be neuropathic pain among other effects.


What would be the result of damage to ventral root of a spinal nerve?

Would lead to loss of both sensory & motor function. Ventral ramus is the anterior division of a spinal nerve.


Why would there be no deficit in sensory function after a left frontal bleed?

You have motor area in front of the central sulcus. You have sensory area behind the central sulcus. So in this type of bleeding the sensory area is not affected.


What would happen if the ventral root of a spinal nerve were damaged?

Loss of both motor and sensory function


What is the difference between foot drop due to sciatic nerve injury and common peroneal nerve injury?

no difference except for the sensory supply. if you damage your sciatic nerve, the sensory and muscle supply above the knee also lost as the sciatic nerve is damage. This is because common peroneal nerve is the brach of sciatic and it is at level of your knee. Only muscle and sensory below the knee level will be affected if you damage the common peroneal nerve. However the condition of foot drop would be the same


Nerve and neurons and recovery from injuries?

Neurons are notoriously slow at recovering from injury and new cells do not tend to grow after damage to nerves in adults. However, rewiring of axons from existing neurons can restore function lost to nerve damage by using different groups of neurons to perform the same action. Lesions to the sensory nerves of an arm leads to disuse of the arm and eventually the motor representation of that arm disappears in the brain. However, if the animal's good arm is restrained it will begin using its sensory-deprived arm (which it would not have otherwise done).


How would you use the word sensory in a sentence?

We are Fond providing Sensory Channels


What are 5 examples of services?

One would be the nervous system, which has the function of controlling the actions of the rest of the organ systems and integrating information received from the sensory organs. Two would be the cardiovascular system, which has the function of transporting nutrients and wastes around the body through the blood stream. Three would be the gastrointestinal system, which has the function of taking in, digesting and extracting nutrients from food sources. Four would be the urinary system, which has the function of filtering wastes from the blood and excreting them. Five would be the reproductive system, which has the function of creating offspring.


What is a Specialized area of sensory neuron that detects a specific stimulus?

the answer to this question would be sensory receptor


What is sensory apparatus?

Sensory apparatus is equipment used to detect something. In man made terms a radar station would be sensory apparatus. In the natural world the organs of "sight", "smell", "hearing", "touch", "balance" would all be classed as sensory apparatus.


Would there be a loss of sensory or motor function when someone damages the dorsal root of a spinal nerve?

Yes this can happen when any nerve is damaged but this is a greater danger if its an actual Spinal Nerve.
