Damage to this fiber type would lead to a loss of sensory function?
ventral root of a spinal nerve
Cell body for first order neuron located here?
dorsal root ganglia and cranial root ganglia
What is the difference between the dorsal root the ventral root and the dorsal root ganglion?
Ventral root is the ventral portion of spinal cord,there is no ganglion,cell body is of motor types ,cell info goes out of spinal cord of anterior horn. dorsal root is dorsal portion of spinal cord,it posses ganglion,cell body is of sensory types,information goes into spinal cord posterior horn
Cell bodies of sensory neurons are found where?
Dorsal root ganglia of the spinal chord gray matter.
What part of a spinal nerve contains only efferent fibers?
The ventral root of the spinal nerve has the efferent fibers and the dorsal root has the afferent. Prior to joining each other in the spine they each consist of only those fibers.

The root section of the intracranial cavity is called the foramen magnum. It is a large opening at the base of the skull through which the spinal cord passes to connect with the brain. The foramen magnum allows for communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
What are the 31 pairs of spinal nerve?
The 31 pairs of spinal nerves are: 8 cervical 12 thoracic 5 lumbar 5 sacral 1 coccygeal. They are formed by the ventral and dorsal root of the nerve that comes out of the spinal cord.
Damage to this fiber type would lead to a loss of sensory function?
ventral root of a spinal nerve
The anterior root and the posterior root fuse to form?
Each spinal nerve attaches to spinal cord by a ventral (anterior) root and a dorsal (posterior) root.All spinal nerves are mixed nerves (both motor and sensory).
Where are the spinal ganglion situated?
They are situated on the dorsal root of each spinal nerve. (:
Cell body for first order neuron located here?
dorsal root ganglia and cranial root ganglia
The motor root of the spinal nerve is also referred to as the?
ventral root
What does the ventral root of a spinal nerve do?
the ventral root carries motor response
What root of a spinal nerve consists of motor neuron axons?
Ventralventral root
What part of the spinal nerve consists of motor fibers leaving the spinal cord?
