The following are the Spinal cord pathway, both sensory and motor.
peripheral nerve -> sensory pathway --> posterior root -> posterior horn -> anterior horn -> anterior root -> motor pathway
This is also the ascending and descending fiber pathways
* ascending / incoming / afferent / sensory pathways:
- sensory impulses carry different "feeling" (light touch, hot, cold)
Fiber pathways from specific area of body
* outgoing / efferent / descending / motor pathways:
- cause muscles to act
- in white matter of spinal cord
- cross over from one side of body to another in different levels (what
effects in phenomenon of left-sided stroke affecting the right side of
the body)
