Q

Why the nerve root innervation to muscle is different from nerve roots

A

Muscles don’t always receive contribution from all the nerve roots that contribute to the nerve cable made up of axons of each nerve root within the bundle - nerves may send wires from all or only some of the nerve roots to the branch
