52
Q

the Alar plate –>

A

becomes the DRG

dorsolateral thickening of the intermediate zone of the neural tube

gives rise to sensory neuroblasts of the dorsal horn

receives axons from dorsal root ganglia, which endter spinal cord and become dorsal (sensory roots)

53
Q

the Basal plate

A

ventrolateral thickening of the intermediate zone of the neural tube

gives rise to motor neuroblasts of the ventral and lateral horns

projects axons from motor neuroblasts, which exit spinal cord and become ventral motor roots

basal plate eventually becomes the ventral horn of the spinal cord
