Neuroanatomy Final Exam Questions

and Answers 100% Solved


__________ are bundles of axons moving with the CNS - ✔✔fiber tracts

List all the categories of fiber tracts - ✔✔- spinal tract (ascending and

descending)

- association fibers (within hemispheres)

- commissural fibers (btwn L and R hemispheres)

- projection fibers (ascending/ descending fibers w/in brain)

The lateral horn of the spinal cord is ONLY present in _______________- -

✔✔T1-L1 (sympathetic chain ganglion)

The ____________________ of the dorsal column is present above T7,

while _______________ is present throughout the spinal column. - ✔✔1.

fasciculus cuneatas

2. fasciculus gracilis



- FC = upper extremity --> does not need nerve fibers past T7

- FG = lower extremity

= sensory receptors to medulla

2nd = medulla to thalamus

3rd = thalamus to S1 cortex
