What is the most cranial cervical vertebra?
seven
Which cranial nerve supplies the thumb?
It is not one of the cranial nerves (I-XII), it is cervical nerve number 6.
What structure separates the cranial cavity and thoracic cavity?
The cervical spine, or the neck.
Where are the apophyseal joints located?
The apophyseal joints are synovial joints in the vertebral column, between the superior or cranial articular process of one vertebra and the inferior or caudal articular process of the vertebra directly above it. See the link below:
What cranial nerve is also known as the accessory nerve?
The accessory nerve is also known as cranial nerve XI. It is primarily responsible for innervating the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles, facilitating shoulder elevation and head rotation. The nerve has both cranial and spinal components, with its cranial part originating from the brainstem and the spinal part arising from the upper cervical spinal cord.
What nerve is not a branch of the trigeminal nerve?
The facial nerve is not a branch of the trigeminal nerve. It is a separate cranial nerve responsible for facial movement and sensation.
What are the 4 regiones of the pig?
1) head (cranial) region 2) neck (cervical) region 3) trunk (thoracic) region 4) tail (caudal) region
What body cavity protect the spinal column?
The dorsal cavity is located in the skull and within the spinal column. It is divided into the cranial and spinal cavities, which protect the nervous system.
What cranial bone articulates with all other cranial bones?
The Sphenoid (Sphenoidal Bone) this is why it is know as the keystone of the cranial floor *The sphenoid is not a facial bone, it is a cranial bone. There is no facial bone which 'articulates' with 'every other facial bone'. Articulation suggests jointed so sutures would make more sense & these sutures would be on all facial bones edges which knit them together
Why is the face not included in the dermatome distribution?
The face is not included in typical dermatome distribution because the cranial nerves innervate the face instead of spinal nerves. The cranial nerves, specifically the trigeminal nerve (CN V), provide sensory innervation to the face.
What part of the brain is located at base and its function?
The base of the brain exits the cranial cavity through the foramen magnum and extends down to at least cervical vertebra number 1 (C1) and usually a portion of cervical vertebra number 2 (C2). The base of the brain is one of four sections of the brain and is called the brain stem. It consists of three parts; the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongatta.
What body cavity contains and protects the brain?
The brain lies within the cranial cavity which is inside the larger dorsal cavity
