Exam 2 - BIOS252 / BIOS 252 (Latest ) : Anatomy And
Physiology II With Lab - Chamberlain
1. Meninges: three protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord
2. What is the order of the spinal and brain coverings from superficial to
innermost?: Dura mater
Arachnoid mater
Pia mater
3. Underneath the arachnoid is a space known as the: Subarachnoid space that
is filled with CSF.
4. Dura mater in the brain is than in the spinal cord: Thicker
5. functions of spinal cord: conduction, neural integration, locomotion, reflexes
6. Cervical Nerves (C1-C8):
7. Thoracic Nerves (T1-T12):
8. Lumbar Nerves (L1-L5):
9. Sacral Nerves (S1-S5):
10. How many pairs of nerves are the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, coccygeal,
and sacral?: cervical-8
thoracic-12
, Exam 2 - BIOS252 / BIOS 252 (Latest ) : Anatomy And
Physiology II With Lab - Chamberlain
lumbar-5
sacral-5
coccygeal-1
11. medullary cone (conus medullaris): tapered tip of cord where the spinal cord
ends
12. cauda equina (horse's tail): roots of nerves that extend from the end of the
spinal cord
13. terminal filum (filum terminale): anchors the spinal cord to coccyx
14. the spinal cord is housed in the ?: Vertebral column
15. Arachnoid is adherent to and is seperated from by fibers
spanning the subarachnoid space that is filled w/CSF.: Dura, Pia
16. the color of CSF is naturally but, if there is an infection it will be
in color.: Clear, cloudy
17. grey mater vs white mater: Grey mater: Neuron cell bodies with little myelin
White mater: abundantly myelinated axons
18. anterior median fissure: deep crease
19. posterior fissure of spinal cord: sulcus
