Q

The basal plates will form what part of the spinal cord?

A

Ventral (motor) horns; also intermediate horns (presynaptic sympathetic nerve cell bodies) that will only be from T1-L2/3

17
Q

The alar plates will form what part of the spinal cord?

A

Dorsal (sensory) horns

18
Q

Gliablasts that migrate to the marginal layer differentiate into what?

A

Astrocytes

19
Q

Gliablasts that migrate to the mantle layer differentiate into what?

A

Oligodendroglia

20
Q

What do astrocytes do?

A

They are interfacing cells between the blood supply and neurons themselves, aiding in neuron support and metabolism

21
Q

What do oligodendroglia do?

A

They are responsible for producing the myelin sheath found on nerve fibers (axons) within the CNS

22
Q

What do Schwann cells do?

A

They are responsible for myelinating axons within the CNS

23
Q

What do microglia do?

A

These are the phagocytic cells of the CNS

24
Q

What is the innervation of the nerve modality (general) somatic efferent?

A

Somatic striated muscles (skeletal muscles that contract voluntarily except for those derived from the pharyngeal arches)

25
Q

What is the innervation of the nerve modality special visceral (brachial) efferent?

A

Striated (skeletal) muscles derived from the pharyngeal arches, except for CN XI

26
Q

What is the innervation of the nerve modality General visceral efferent?

A

AKA the autonomic nervous system

27
Q

What is the innervation of the nerve modality (general) somatic afferent (general sensory)?

A

General sensations such as touch, temperature & pain

28
Q

What is the innervation of the nerve modality special afferent?

A

Special sense (taste, smell, vision, hearing & balance)

29
Q

What is the innervation of the nerve modality general visceral afferent?

A

Interoceptive information

30
Q

The medulla contains what nerve modalities?

A

All six

31
Q

The pons contain what nerve modalities?

A

All six

32
Q

The midbrain contains what nerve modalities?

A

Only somatic efferent and general visceral efferent
