The femoral sheath is a downward prolongation of abdominal fascial lining into the lower limbs. It covers the femoral vessels and lymphatics for about 1.5 inches into the thigh. But the femoral nerve, which is the principal nerve of lower limb, lies outside this sheath. The reason is that the major nerves lie outside the fascial envelope.

An autonomic motor neuron whose cell body lies in the CNS is called a?
This type of nerve is called an efferent autonomic neuron.
Is the asteroid belt in Saturn a inner or outer?
Saturn lies outside the asteroid belt.
Is Jupiter in the inside or outside of the asteroid belt?

Where is the orthocenter on an obtuse triangle?
An orthocenter on an obtuse triangle actually lies outside of the triangle. In an acute triangle, the orthocenter lies within the triangle.
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle since?
The orthocenter is the point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect. An orthocenter lies outside of a triangle only when the triangle is obtuse. If a triangle is acute, the orthocenter lies inside of the triangle.
If a triangle is obtuse where is the orthocenter of the triangle found?
If a triangle is obtuse, the orthocenter of the triangle actually lies outside of the triangle. If the triangle is acute, the orthocenter of the triangle lies on the inside of the triangle
What may fall outside a triangle?
The orthocenter may fall outside of a triangle. The orthocenter usually lies within the inside the triangle. However this is only the case if the triangle is acute.
If the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle lies outside the triangle what type of triangle is it?
Isometric, I think * * * * * An obtuse angled triangle.
Does the common femoral vein lie medial or lateral to the common femoral artery?
The common femoral vein is medial to the common femoral artery. The common femoral artery lies farther from the body's midline.
Do the altidudes of a triangle always meet in the interior of the triangle?
In a obtuse triangle, the point of concurrency, where multiple lines meet, of the altitudes, called the orthocenter, is outside the triangle. In a right angle, the orthocenter lies on the vertex (corner) of the right angle. In an acute angle, the orthocenter lies inside the triangle.
Collection of cell bodies found outside the cns?
neurons is the incorrect answer. The correct answer is ganglia.
What are the characteristics of orthocenter?
The orthocenter of a triangle is the point where the altitudes of the triangle intersect. It may lie inside, outside, or on the triangle depending on the type of triangle. In an acute triangle, the orthocenter lies inside the triangle; in a right triangle, it is at the vertex opposite the right angle; and in an obtuse triangle, it is outside the triangle.
Which cranial nerve lies medial to the vagus nerve?
That would be the hypoglossal nerve, which lies medial from the vagus, accessory, glossopharyngeal nerves.
What is the name of a circle that lies outside of the triangle and passes through all vertices of the triangle?
The triangle that has all three vertices touching the circle is called an 'inscribed triangle.' The circle has no special name, only the polygon inscribed.
