21
Q

where does the cell bodies of dorsal roots lies and names

A

Their cell bodies lie outside the s.c. in the intervertebral foramen and are called,
• Dorsal root ganglia or, • Spinal ganglia

22
Q

location of cell bodies of ventral roots

A

Cell bodies are contained within the anterior and lateral horns

23
Q

ventral roots contains what

A

axons of motor neurons

24
Q

dorsal roots contains what

A

sensory neurons

25
the spinal nerve is form by what
Dorsal and ventral roots come together
26
the spinale nerve divides into
dorsal and ventral rami
27
innervation of dorsal rami
eep vertebral muscles and skin of | the back
28
innervation of ventral rami
ventral and lateral musculature
29
spinal nerve are sensory of motor
both
30
how many pair of spinal nerve is there
31
31
function of meninges
- protect brain and spinal cord - form supporting framework for artery brain and venous sinus - enclose subarachnoid space for circulation of CSF
32
what cover the pituitary gland
Diaphragm Sellae
33
what layer of meninges contain the CSF
subarachnoid space
34
where is located the denticulate ligament
pia mater
35
when does the spinal nerves stop being cover by meninges
until they exit through intervertebral foramina
36
which nerve act primarily as pain receptors of the body but Also act as tickle, itch and thermal, and touch receptors
free nerve ending
37
where does the free nerve ending bracnch
between epithelial cells, connective cells, muscle | cells, etc.
38
which nerve are surrounded by CT capsule
encapsulated sensory ending
39
how many Encapsulated Sensory Endings in total
6
40
which nerve are Encapsulated Sensory Endings
``` Meissner Corpuscles • Pacinian Corpuscles • End bulbs of Krause • Ruffini Corpuscles • Muscle Spindles • Golgi Tendon Organs ```
41
location, function and adaptation of messiner corpuscle
Surrounds spinal ending of a dendrite • Sensitive to light touch, pressure, and slow vibrations • Rapidly-adapting Found in the: • Skin (dermis) - especially the finger tips • Mucous membrane of the tongue • Other sensitive regions of the body (ex: eyelids)
42
location, function and adaptation of pacinian corpuscle
• Located in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, submucosa, joints, periosteum, and some viscera • Adapt rapidly • Stimulated by heavy pressure, fast vibrations, tickling
43
location, function and adaptation of end-bulbs of Krause
• Located in the mucous of the lips, tongue, conjunctiva, external genitalia • Common throughout the body (dermis of skin) • Serve as cold receptors
44
location, function and adaptation of Ruffini corpuscle
* Located in sub-cutaneous tissue, ligaments, tendons * Slow-adapting * Respond to stretching of the skin * Contribute to the kinesthetic sense of, and control of, joint position and movement
45
location, function and adaptation of muscle spindle
found in skeletal muscle, react to change in muscle length
46
what is contain in the capsule of muscle spindle
Within this capsule are skeletal muscle fibers called intrafusal fibers • They are supplied by sensory neurons
47
what happens with muscle spindle when a muscle is stretch
• When the muscle is stretched so are the intrafusal fibers which send afferent nerve impulses back to the spinal nerve • In response, there is stimulation of the efferent (motor) neurons to the same muscle that contracts it • Therefore stretch is reflexively resisted
48
function and adaptation of GTO
react to muscle tension Composed of dendrites that have many branches on the muscle tendon junction The stimulus will go back to the s.c. where the motor neurons to the same muscles are inhibited, thus relaxing the muscle • Principle of PNF stretching and hold/relax stretch
49
which spinal nerve is not a cutaneous innervation
C1
50
