Question
Chapter 12.1, Problem 15R
(A)
Summary Introduction
To define: The nerve plexus and list of nerve plexus.
Introduction: The spinal and the brain make up the major part of the central nervous system. The spinal is the tube-like structure that begins from the medulla oblongata of the brainstem and extends toward the lumbar region of the vertebral column. It is about 45 centimetres long and width of about 14 millimetres.
(B)
Summary Introduction
To describe: The spinal nerve that is not part of a nerve plexus.
Introduction: The spinal and the brain make up the major part of the central nervous system. The spinal cord is the tube-like structure that consists of 31 pairs of segments that each gives off the pairs of the spinal nerves.
