| The bulge in the spinal cord that gives off nerves to the upper limbs is called the | Cervical enlargement |
| The bulge in the spinal cord that gives off nerves to the lower limbs is called the | Lumbar enlargement |
| The (BLANK) is a groove that extends the length of the spinal cord posteriorly. | Posterior Median Sulcus |
| In a spinal cord cross section, the posterior (BLANK) of the gray matter resemble the upper wings of a butterfly. | Horns |
| The cell bodies of motor neurons are found in the (BLANK) horns of the spinal cord. | Anterior |
| The (BLANK) connects the gray matter on the left and right sides of the spinal cord. | Gray Commissure |
