Parasympathetic

Explanation

Question 15 of 19

1

Select from the dropdown lists to complete the text.

The Spinal Cord: a segmented structure with ( sensory nerves, motor nerves ) (( afferent, efferent )) from the dorsal, that provides ( sensory information, motor information ) from the periphery to the spinal cord and then to the brain, as well as ( motor nerves, sensory nerves ) (( efferent, afferent )) from the ventral, that provides ( motor information, sensory information ) from the spinal cord to the muscles accounting for voluntary movements

Explanation

Question 16 of 19

1

The Somatic System sends information from the brain and the spinal cord to the muscles and in return, relays the received sensory information to the CNS i.e., voluntary motor movements

Select one of the following:

True
