22
Q

In general, the neuron cell bodies located in this region of the spinal cord gray matter are involved in the transmission and processing of pain and temperature sensory information.

A

Dorsal horn

23
Q

Consists of neuron cell bodies that receive pain and temperature information from dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory neurons. Appears “bright white” in the spinal cord sections, and is present at all levels. (Rexed lamina II)

A

Substantia gelatinosa

24
Q

The neuron cell bodies located in this region of spinal cord gray matter are involved in the transmission and processing of either autonomic information, or unconscious (non- conscious) proprioception (“position sense”) information.

A

Intermediate horn

25
Q

cell bodies of preganglionic

sympathetic neurons, found at spinal cord levels T1-L2

A

Intermediolateral cell column (IMLCC)

26
Q

cell bodies of preganglionic

parasympathetic neurons for innervation of pelvic viscera, found at spinal cord levels S2-S4

A

Sacral parasympathetic nucleus

27
Q

cell bodies of neurons that project axons in the dorsal spinocerebellar tract. Found at levels T1-L2/L3

A

Nucleus dorsalis of Clarke

28
Q

cell bodies of neurons that decussate, and project axons in the ventral spinocerebellar tract. Found at levels L1-S2

A

Spinal border cells

29
Q

Most of the neuron cell bodies located in this region of the spinal cord are alpha motor neurons that innervate voluntary skeletal muscles in the trunk, limbs, and neck. These neurons receive information (“input”) from a variety of neurons located in higher regions of the CNS (e.g. cerebral cortex), and are thus often referred to as “lower motor neurons”.

A

Ventral Horn

30
Q

Alpha motor neurons are not randomly arranged in the ventral horns: the locations of the cell bodies are correlated with the locations and functions of the muscles that they innervate. This principle of mapping body parts onto the neurons that innervate them, and maintaining this map throughout all the connections in the CNS, is referred to as __________.

A

somatotopic organization

31
Q

The terms “funiculus”, “fasciculus”, and “tract” all refer to bundles, or cables, of axons; these appear as _______ because of the myelin insulation, produced by oligodendrocytes (CNS) and Schwann cells (PNS).

A

white matter

32
Q

In the spinal cord, tracts are grouped into a ______ (between the dorsal median fissure and dorsolateral sulcus), a _______ (between the dorsolateral sulcus and ventrolateral sulcus), and a _______ (between the ventrolateral sulcus and ventral median fissure).

A
  • dorsal funiculus
  • lateral funiculus
  • ventral funiculus
33
Q

Axons _____ (project towards the brain) or _____ (project towards the caudal end of the spinal cord) within the funiculi.

A
  • ascend

- descend

neurons that transmit commands for movement to the alpha motor
neurons in the ventral horn.

A

40
Q
