the ventral root carries motor response
ventral root
Yes, the ventral root of a spinal nerve is the efferent motor root, consists of axons of motor neurons. It joins the dorsal root to form a mixed spinal nerve, which consists of afferent sensory neurons (from the dorsal root) and efferent motor neurons (from the ventral root). Therefore severing the ventral root will result in a loss of motor function for the myotome supplied by that spinal nerve.
The ventral root.
Would lead to loss of both sensory & motor function. Ventral ramus is the anterior division of a spinal nerve.
ventral root of a spinal nerve
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.
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).
loss of both the motor and sensory functions
the what? root of a spinal nerve consists of motor neuron axons
Loss of both motor and sensory function
The ventral root of a spinal nerve contains efferent motor neurons that carry signals away from the spinal cord to muscles and glands in the body. These motor neurons control voluntary movements and autonomic functions.
