Intro to Neuroscience
Q: Which of the following statements ACCURATELY describe spinal cord organization.
α-motor neurons are organized from lateral to media such that those found towards the medial section of the spinal cord controls the distal muscles.
Lumbar spinal cord enlargement is observed where neurons that innervate the legs and feet are located
Neuronal cell bodies (somas) of neurons that innervate single muscles are only found in a single spinal cord segment.
Muscles of the trunk are represented medially while muscles of arms and hands are represented laterally
