What else can I help you with?
In the spinal cord, there is a butterfly shaped structure. What does the ventral horn of this structure primarily consist of?
is: the cell bodies of motor neurons
Where are located peripheral motor neuron cell bodies?
For spinal nerves, the general somatic efferent motor neurons have their cell bodies located in the ventral horn of the spinal cord (sometimes also called the anterior horn).Some of your cranial nerves also have motor neurons located in various nuclei of the brainstem.
Where are cell bodies of motor neurons to skeletal muscles located?
Motor neurons to skeletal muscles have cell bodies located in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. These cell bodies send signals through their axons to control muscle movement and are part of the somatic nervous system.
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
Where are large groups of neuron cell bodies found?
Large groups of neuron cell bodies are found in structures called ganglia in the peripheral nervous system and nuclei in the central nervous system. Ganglia are clusters of cell bodies outside the brain and spinal cord, whereas nuclei are centralized collections of cell bodies within the brain.
Where are the cell bodies for the second order neurons located?
Second order neuron cell bodies reside in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord.
Do lower motor neurons have their cell bodies in the brain and their axons in the ganglia?
No, lower motor neurons have their cell bodies in the spinal cord or brainstem and their axons extend directly to the muscles they innervate. Ganglia are clusters of cell bodies located outside the central nervous system.
Cell bodies of sensory neurons are collected in ganglia in the?
dorsal root of the spinal cord
Where does many upper motor neurons synapse with lower motor neurons?
Many upper motor neurons synapse with lower motor neurons in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. This is where the cell bodies of lower motor neurons are located, allowing for the direct control of muscle function.
Are motor neuron cell bodies located in the gray of white matter of the spinal cord?
gray
Are motor neuron cell bodies located in the the gray or white matter of the spinal cord?
gray
What is the portion of the spinal cord made up of cell bodies and unmyelinated axons?
Gray matter
