| Where does the anterior ramus extend its spinal nerves to? | ~muscles and structures of the upper and lower limbs ~skin of the lateral and anterior trunk --- major parts of the body |
| What type of branch reenter the cerebral canal through the intervertebral foramen and supplies to the vertebrae, spinal cord, and meninges? | meningeal branch |
| When the body want to send spinal nerves from the anterior rami to body structures, what network of axon is used? | plexus |
| What are plexus? | ~when the anterior rami want to send spinal nerves to the structure of the body, a formation of networks on both left and right sides of the body join with various number of axons from anterior rami adjacent nerves ~network/cluster of neurons |
| What happens if you damage a plexus? | ~may cause damage to spill segment, but the nerve could go back with the help of Schwann cells ~not as strong but still have control |
