Spinal Cord Review
Across
- 2. branches innervate the skin and muscles of the anterior and medial thigh
- 5. funiculi that carry information about touch and limb position to the brain
- 8. innervates the posterior thigh and most of the leg and foot
- 10. Portion of the posterior horn that contains neurons that send pain and temperature sensations to the brain
- 11. collection of muscle fibers innervated by motor axons within each segmental nerve root
- 12. central part of the spinal cord, shaped like a butterfly, contains cell bodies of the neurons
- 14. section of the grey matter in the spinal cord that carry sensory information to the brain
- 15. the area of the skin innervated by the sensory axons within each segmental nerve root
- 16. funiculi that are ascending and descending pathways
- 17. part of the spinal cord that carry afferent sensory information to the CNS
- 18. Portion of the grey matter that contains CSF
Down
- 1. the entire upper limb is innervated by these branches
- 3. part of the spinal cord that carry efferent motor information to tissue
- 4. the outer part of the spinal cord that contains bundles of ascending and descending fibers
- 6. part of the central nervous system, carries sensory and motor information
- 7. funiculi that are descending pain pathways for movement
- 9. section of the grey matter in the spinal cord that contains cell bodies of motor neurons that activate skeletal muscle
- 13. provides cutaneous sensory info from posterior scalp to the clavicle
