1

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

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • 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.

Explicación

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.

Selecciona uno de los siguientes:

  • VERDADERO
  • FALSO

Explicación

Pregunta 7 de 18

1

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

Selecciona uno de los siguientes:

  • VERDADERO
  • FALSO

Explicación

Pregunta 8 de 18

1

Which statement about the cauda equina is false.

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • 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.
