What will happen if there are lesions in the sensory pathways?
Parts of body that are affected by lesions depend on the sites and sides of lesions.If it happens after the sensory decussation (for example, at Medial Lemniscus or Internal capsule), it will cause the loss of sensations in the opposite side of the body. For instance, any damages to the left internal capsule will cause the loss of sensations of the right side of your body, including upper and lower limbs.If it happens before the sensory decussation (for example, at dorsal column of spinal cord), it will cause the loss of sensations from the level of lesion and below, in the same side of the body. For instance, any damages to left dorsal column in T12 spinal segment will cause the loss of sensations in the left side of your body from the level of lesion and below (which means, in this case, inlcuding the lower limbs only, but not upper limbs)
What nerve carries impulses through the spinal cord?
The spinal cord and the abdomen, limbs, and chest. Spinal nerves carry impulses between the spinal cord and the abdomen, limbs, and chest. Cranial nerves carry impulses between the brain and the neck and head.

Sensory
Blood from the lower limbs is returned to the heart via the?
inferior vena cava.
Why do people with CMT have some loss of sensory ability?
CMT also affects the sensory nerves that carry information from the limbs to the brain. Therefore people with CMT also have sensory loss

The spinal cord is 1flattened somewhat laterally 2characterized by thoracis and sacral enlargements 3longer than the vertebral column 4contiguous with the medulla oblongata or 5tapered into a conus me?
The spinal cord is basically your spine. It carries messages between your brain and the rest of the body. Your spinal cord is a slender nerve column that goes from your brain to your vertebral column. It starts with the foramen magnum and has 31 segments (vertebrae). There are 8 cervical vertebrae, which control nerve impulses in your upper limbs. There are 12 thoracic and 5 lumbar vertebrae, which control the nerve impulses in your upper limbs. There are also 5 sacral and finally 1 coccygeal vertebraes.
What will happen to a person whose motor nerves are impaired?
as the motor nerves carry impulses from the brain to the limbs and muscles numbness or feeling will be reduced or lost and muscle tone will diminish.
