1

Which statements about the external anatomy of the spinal cord are true?

Wähle eine oder mehr der folgenden:

  • It ends at the superior border of the second lumbar vertebrae. (L2).

  • It leaves the skull though the foramen magnum.

  • It is within the meningeal sack, which sits inside the spinal cavity.

Erklärung

Frage 3 von 18

1

The CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) is to provide cushioning as well as nutrients.

Wähle eins der folgenden:

  • WAHR
  • FALSCH

Erklärung

Frage 4 von 18

1

From the deepest part to the most superior part, the spinal cord is protected by CSF > Adipose Tissue > Meninges > Vertebrae

Wähle eins der folgenden:

  • WAHR
  • FALSCH

Erklärung

Frage 5 von 18

1

Which statement about the external anatomy of the associated features of the spinal cord is false?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • The conus medularis and filum terminale are connective tissue.

  • The filum terminale is an extension of the nerves.

  • The conus medularis is a tapered cone at the distal end of the spinal cord/meningeal sack.

Erklärung

Frage 6 von 18

1

Spinal nerves are named after the vertebrae/spinal cord region they exit/enter. The spinal cord, from superior region to most inferior region, goes Cervical > Thoracic > Lumbar > Sacrum.

Wähle eins der folgenden:

  • WAHR
  • FALSCH

Erklärung

Frage 7 von 18

1

Inferior to the end of the spinal cord, some lumbar and all sacral nerves continue to exit the vertebral column.

Wähle eins der folgenden:

  • WAHR
  • FALSCH

Erklärung

Frage 8 von 18

1

Which statement about the cauda equina is false.

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • It is the region of the meningeal sack inferior to the spinal cord.

  • At its most inferior point, spinal nerves exit the cauda equina at the coccygeal level.

  • The existence of the cauda equina means that you can only damage your spinal nerves if the spinal cord is damaged.

Erklärung

Frage 9 von 18

1

Wähle eins der folgenden:

  • WAHR

Which of these statements about the internal anatomy of the spinal cord is correct?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Neurons leaving the ventral root always synapse with skeletal muscle.

  • The dorsal root ganglion carries afferent information to the brain.

  • The anterior region of the spinal cord carries ascending information.

  • Damage to the posterior region of the spine affects motor control.

Erklärung

Frage 12 von 18

1
