Starting from the spinal cord trace a motor pathway to the adductor muscle of the thigh Include the spinal cord root spinal nerve nerve plexus and specific peripheral nerve involved in the pathway?
starting in the spinal cord, trace a motor pathway to the adductor muscles of the thigh. Include the spinal cord root, spinal nerve, nerve plexus, and specific peripheral nerve involved in the pathway
The major plexuses of the spinal cord?
The major plexuses of the spinal cord are: Cervical Plexus (C1–C4) – neck & diaphragm Brachial Plexus (C5–T1) – upper limbs Lumbar Plexus (L1–L4) – abdomen & thigh Sacral Plexus (L4–S4) – leg & foot Coccygeal Plexus (S4–Co1) – coccyx
Which plexus contains the foot and the leg?
The lumbar plexus contains nerve fibers that innervate the leg, and the sacral plexus contains nerve fibers that innervate the foot. The lumbar plexus arises from the lower spinal cord levels, while the sacral plexus arises from the sacral spinal cord levels.
Which of the following is not a nerve plexus?
The spinal nerve is not a nerve plexus. Nerve plexuses are complex interwoven networks of nerves that form in the peripheral nervous system, whereas spinal nerves are the mixed nerves that emerge from the spinal cord and are not organized in a plexus-like fashion.
Is the stomach anterior to the spinal cord?
The spinal cord is posterior to the chest.
Where does enlargements of the spinal cord occur?
Enlargement of the spinal cord can occur at any point along the spinal cord. Where depends upon the cause. These causes could be bacterial infection, structural changes in the vertebrae or a tumour. Less likely causes could be genetic birht defects.
Which spinal nerves do not form plexus?
The spinal nerves that originate from the thoracic portion of the spinal cord don't form plexuses. The word thoracic pertains to the thorax.
Which plexus of the spinal cord consists of one pair of nerves?
The cervical plexus consists of one pair of nerves, specifically the first cervical nerve (C1). It primarily supplies the muscles and skin of the neck and is involved in several reflexes and functions, including controlling the diaphragm via the phrenic nerve.
Is the choroid plexus part of the brain anatomy?
Yes it is. It is located along the third and fourth ventricle of the brain. The choroid plexus creates the cerebrospinal fluid for the brain and spinal cord.
What is formed by the spinal nerves exiting the cord from the level of L4 to S4?
Spinal nerves exiting the spinal canal between L4 and S4 collectively make up the sacral plexus.
What branch of a spinal nerve supplies the vertebrae and blood vessels of the spinal cord?
meningeal branch
