- 6. Term meaning a nerve containing both sensory and motor fibers
- 7. A bundle of fibers located inside the CNS
- 8. Region of the “H” shaped area of the spinal cord containing the cell bodies of motor nerves
- 9. The phrenic nerve which supplies the diaphragm is derived from this plexus
- 11. The part of a spinal nerve which supplies all extremities and lateral and ventral trunk
- 12. A bundle of neuron fibers which are located outside the CNS
- 14. A group of nerve cell bodies that lie outside the CNS
- 16. A swelling of the dorsal root which contains the cell bodies of sensory nerves
- 19. The third possible part of a spinal nerve which is responsible for the functions of the ANS
- 20. small hole in the center of the grey matter of the spinal cord, which contains cerebrospinal fluid
