Spinal cord enlargement, also called acute myelitis, can be caused by an accident or a variety of illnesses, like Multiple Sclerosis. Symptoms of spinal cord enlargement include neck pain, tightness, and loss of feeling in the body. There is not much doctors can do for this condition, besides administering large doses of steroids.

Would lead to loss of both sensory & motor function. Ventral ramus is the anterior division of a spinal nerve.

According to the Journal of Neuroscience Nursing in an article by Kathleen T. Lucke, "lung diseases and breathing complications cause significant illness in patients following spinal cord injuries. The mortality rate from pulmonary complications, such as pneumonia, lung collapse, respiratory failure, and infections, can be 40-80% in the first year after injury."

The brain and spinal cord are referred to as the central nervous system; the rest of the nervous system is called the peripheral nervous system.

This type of injury may leave the person with good muscle power, pain and temperature sensation, however they may experience difficulty in coordinating movement of their limbs.

the central canal

yes spinal cord attached to the brain .spinal cord have bundles of nerves which attached to the brain.

no but you can bleed from the nose if you try a backflip

The spinal reflex enters via the dorsal horn via the afferent nerves sensing the stimulus, e.g. nociceptors (pain receptors) in the skin. The afferent nerve synapses directly onto the efferent nerve responsible for skeletal muscle movement and leaves via the ventral horn, traveling to the muscle responsible for eliciting the response.

Unlike the Peripheral nervous system, the Central Nervous System includes the brain and the spinal chord.

Softening of brain tissue, usually caused by vascular insufficiency or degenerative changes. Also called cerebromalacia.Source: The American Heritage® Medical Dictionary

yes the canal does contain cerebrospinal fluid....

The dorsal nerve cord is one of the embryonic features unique to chordates, along with a notochord, a post-anal tail and pharyngeal slits. It is a hollow cord dorsal to the notochord. It is formed from a part of the ectoderm that rolls, forming the hollow tube, compared to other animal phyla, which have solid, ventral tubes. The dorsal nerve cord is later modified into the brain and spinal cord. Dorsal nerve cord is mainly found in phylum Vertebrata.

Dorsal means the "back" side, as opposed to the belly side (ventral).

its the cerebellum

Your spine is an elaborate unit structurally consisting of 33 vertebrae, 24 movable and 9 fused, and 23 intervertebral discs. In between each of the 24 movable vertebrae, except between C1/C2 (atlas and axis), discs are situated. These discs allow for the mobility, curvature, and shock absorption qualities of the spine. The vertebrae themselves are the main structures that protect the spinal cord via the posterior arch, consisting of pedicles and laminae. Therefore, the vertebrae protect the integrity of the spinal cord, but the discs are the structures responsible for the motion of the spine.

The neuron that transmits a signal from the nervous system to an effector is a motor neuron.

It is when the L1 vertabrae has shattered into a few to several pieces from force trauma. This will cause the pieces of the L1 vertabrae to com out of place and possibly pinching the spinal cord to cutting it.

The grey matter on a spinal cord is on the spinal roots.
