Answer:

A dorsal root (sensory or afferent) and a ventral root (motor or efferent) originate from the medulla. They unite near the intervertebral foramen, forming the spinal nerve. The nerves emerge from the intervertebral foramen, dividing into ventral and dorsal ramus.

Explanation:

The nerve is a set of nerve fibers perceptible to the naked eye and wrapped in connective tissue. They are made up of roots, trunks and nerve branches (some of them come together and form plexuses).The spinal nerve originate from the spinal cord in the form of 31 pairs: 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral and 1 coccygeal. They emerge from the spinal cord through two roots: dorsal roots, made up of sensory fibers that come from the sensory neurons of the spinal ganglion and that penetrate the spinal cord through the posterolateral  and ventral root, made up of motor fibers, coming from the motor neurons of the anterior horn and visceral of the lateral horn of the gray matter of the spinal cord. This root exits the spinal cord through the anterolateral groove, then joins the posterior root to form the spinal nerve, which exits the vertebral canal through the corresponding intervertebral foramen.Each spinal nerve, after leaving the vertebral canal, emits two primary ramus: the dorsal ramus, contains somatic and visceral fibers that go to the skin and muscles of the back and the ventral ramus, which supplies the ventrolateral surface of the skin, body wall and extremities.

What is one of the functions controlled by the cerebellum? A. balance B. digestion C. respiration D. memory
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

A. Balance

Explanation:

The cerebellum receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements. The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity. It is also important for learning motor behaviors.

What is one way that matter moves from<br> the geosphere to the hydrosphere?
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Water in the geosphere can be discharged into surface water, becoming part of the hydrosphere once again, or it could be drawn up into the roots of a plant and become part of the biosphere. Water in the biosphere can be released into the atmosphere through transpiration in plants, or respiration in animals.

Why don't all cells demonstrate the presence of all intracellular structures?
Vinil7 [7]

All the cells don't have all of the intracellular structures because each and every cell do not need each and every intracellular structure. The plant cells have chloroplasts because they need to convert the light energy into chemical energy via the process of photosynthesis, the animal cells, however, have no such need, therefore, the animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Also, the erythrocytes do not have the cellular organelles in them which are present in the other body cells, because there is no need for the cellular organelles in them. The large vacuoles in plant cells is also a great example. The plants need the vacuoles for the metabolic processes, while most animal cells have no need for them.
