- how can you distinquish the two?
A
- alar foramen
- Lateral foramen
- If you stick a probe into lateral foramen it will go into the vertebral foramen

- Which vertebrae make up transverse canal in ruminants?
- horses?
A
- Ruminant transverse canal = c2-c6
- Horse= c1-c6
10
Q

A
vertebral artery, vein and nerve
11
Q
- what type of nerve is the vertebral nerve?
- innervation from what?
A
- post ganglionic sympathetic innervation from
- cervicothoracic ganglion
12
Q

16
Q
- How is the nuchal ligament different in herbivores than dogs?
- what does it do?
A
- Nuchal ligament in dog terminates in C2
- Herbivore will go all the way to the head
- support the head and help raise the head
