Nervous System
Across
- 4. nerve networks formed from merging of anterior rami with one or more adjacent anterior rami
- 6. transmits impulses to skeletal muscle
- 7. fine filament of connective tissue that extends from conus medullaris
- 9. thin, intermediate layer surrounding brain and spinal cord
- 15. innervates organs and conveys visceral efferent and afferent fibers to and from organs of the body cavities
- 17. saw tooth like fibrous sheets of pia
- 18. outer layer of dura mater formed by periosteum covering internal surface of calvaria
- 19. in or on wall of target organ
- 20. delicate, internal layer surrounding brain and spinal cord
Down
- 1. contains cell bodies of sensory neurons
- 2. tapered inferior end of spinal cord located at L1/L2 vertebral level
- 3. bundle of nerve roots of spinal nerves caudal to L2 vertebra
- 5. enlargement of the subarachnoid space in the dural sac caudal to conus medullaris
- 8. dural infolding between the cerebral hemispheres
- 10. partial partitions of dura between parts of the brain providing support
- 11. tough, thick, external fibrous layer surrounding brain and spinal cord
- 12. dural infolding between the hemispheres of the cerebellum
- 13. dural infolding superior to the cerebellum
- 14. includes sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions
- 16. inner layer of dura mater, strong fibrous membrane continuous at the foramen magnum with dura mater covering spinal cord
