17
Q

This part of spinal cord has dorsal and ventral roots called the cauda equina

A

Lumbar cistern

18
Q

Law that is not entirely true but states that the dorsal root has only afferents and ventral root has only efferent fibers

A

Bell magendie law

19
Q

Gray matter is rich in blank

A

Cell bodies/dendrites

20
Q

Gray matter can form these or these

A

Nuclei, ganglia

21
Q

Slide how tracts are named important

22
Q

More blank the farther down the spinal cord

A

Gray matter

23
Q

Special sensory nucleus on the medial surface of the posterior horn of T1-L2

A

Clarke’s nucleus

24
Q

Clarke’s nucleus is a spinal relay from the leg to the cerebellum and does blank

A

Proprioception

25
In the cervical and lumbar enlargements, there are additional motor neurons located blank in the blank horns
Laterally, anterior
26
Two cervical cord specialized columns of motor neurons
Lateral spinal accessory nucleus, medial phrenic nucleus
27
This nucleus extends from medulla to c5 and forms the accessory nerve
Lateral spinal accessory
28
This innervates the diaphragm and is C3-C5
Medial phrenic nucleus
29
Intermediate gray matter contains blank neurons
Efferent autonomic
30
There are blank laminae of the spinal cord gray matter and have different functions
Rexed's
31
Marginal zone is lamina blank and has this function
1, pain/temp
32
Substantia gelatinosa is this lamina and has this function
2, modulate pain/temp
