Name the:

  1. Origin
  2. Insertion
  3. Action
  4. Nerve
A

ORIGIN

21
Q

The suboccipital nerve brings information to the Central Nervous System

True or False?

A

False! It is a motor neuron and therefore takes information AWAY from the CNS

* efferent (ex: carry info for leg to kick, hand to clench)

22
Q

Greater Occipital nerve is purely sensory.

True or false?

A

True! It is at dorsal ramus C2 (Axis) and is sensory only)

23
Q

A

ORIGIN
Lateral mass of atlas (C1)
INSERTION
Lateral half inferior nuchal line
ACTION
Lateral flexes atlanto-occipital joint
NERVE
Suboccipital nerve (posterior primary ramus of C1)

From

24
Q

A

Suboccipital nerve (purely motor)

25
Q

Rectus Capitis Posterior Major

A

ORIGIN
Spinous process of axis (C2)
INSERTION
Lateral half of inferior nuchal line
ACTION
Extends and rotates atlanto-occipital joint
NERVE
Suboccipital nerve (posterior primary ramus C1)

26
Q

Rectus Capitis Posterior Minor

A

ORIGIN
Posterior process of atlas (C1)
INSERTION
Medial half of inferior nuchal line
ACTION

Q

What is the cone-like structure at the end of the spinal chord?

At what vertebral level is it usually found?

A

Conus Medullaris

at level of L1-L2

28
Q

At which vertebrae does the spinal chord end?

A

L1-L2

29
Q

What connects the pia mater and dura mater via lateral extensions?

A

Dentate Ligament - has lateral extensions between nerve roots

30
Q

Which of the three meninges is responsible for housing the Cerebrospinal Fluid(CSF)?

A

Arachnoid

31
Q

What is the filum terminale?

A

The filum terminale (“terminal thread”), is a delicate strand of fibrous tissue, proceeding downward from the apex of the conus medullaris. It is one of the modifications of pia mater.

ROOTS form NERVES.

35
Q

Roots divide to form ______.

A

RAMI

36
Q

What is the cauda equini?

A

The cauda equina (Latin for “horse’s tail”) is a bundle of spinal nerves and spinal nerve roots

37
Q

A
  1. Cervical - 7
  2. Thoracic - 12
  3. Lumbar - 5
  4. Sacral - 5 (fused**)
38

Q

What is a somite?

A

Undifferentiated segments of mesoderm lined along the neural tube.

40
Q

What do the scleratome, myotome, and dermatome form into?

A

Scleratome = vertebrae

Myotome = muscle
