I. SPINAL NERVES•C1-C8
•CERVICAL NERVES
•T1-T12•THORACIC NERVES
•L1-L5•LUMBAR NERVES
•SACRAL NERVES•S1-S5
•COCCYGEAL NERVES•1 PAIR
• They are NOT “named.”• LETTERS
• INDICATE REGIONS OF VERTEBRAL COLUMN
• NUMBERS• INDICATE HOW MANY OF
EACH TYPE (EACH PAIRED)
SPINAL NERVES are IDENTIFIED BY LETTERS AND
NUMBERS
SPINAL NERVES are IDENTIFIED BY LETTERS AND NUMBERS
• THE LETTERS AND NUMBERS INDICATE WHERE THE NERVES EXIT SPINAL CAVITY•C1-C7 Exit Above C1-C7
Vertebrae•C8 Exits Below C7 Vertebra•Thoracics and Lumbars Exit Below
Their Respective Vertebrae•Sacrals Exit Through Openings in
Sacrum•Coccygeals Pass Over Coccyx
CAUDA EQUINA ( Horse’s Tail )
• Describes the Appearance of the Bottom of the Spinal Cord
• Reason: Spinal Cord Ends at Bottom of the 1st Lumbar Vertebra;
CAUDA EQUINA ( Horse’s Tail )
• Means That Lumbar, Sacral, and Coccygeal Nerves Hang in a Bundle at the Bottom of the SC Before Exiting at Their Respective Locations
• Causes the Bottom of the Spinal Cord to Resemble a Cauda Equina
SPINAL NERVES ARE MIXED NERVES
• The spinal nerves carry both sensory and motor messages and are called “mixed nerves.”
SPINAL NERVE STRUCTURE
• NERVE ROOTS: Join Spinal Nerves to Spinal Cord• VENTRAL ROOTS
• NF OF EFFERENT NEURONS
• DORSAL ROOTS• NF OF AFFERENT NEURONS
SPINAL NERVE ROOTS
RAMI (RAMUS)• The Major Branches of a Spinal Nerve• Each Spinal Nerve Has 2 Rami
RAMI (RAMUS) DESCRIPTION• The spinal nerve trunk
emerges laterally from the intervertebral foramen
• The trunk divides into two major branches (The anterior (ventral) and posterior (dorsal) primary rami (ramus, singular))
• The posterior primary rami go to the back.
• The anterior primary rami go to the sides and front of the body, and to the upper and lower members.
DORSAL RAMUS• AREAS SUPPLIED
•Provides Nerve Supply to Posterior Head, Neck, and Trunk
•Contains Both Afferent and Efferent (Somatic) Nerve Fibers
VENTRAL RAMUS (More Complex)
• AREAS SUPPLIED•Lateral and Anterior Neck and
Trunk as well as Extremities•Contains Both Afferent and
Efferent (Somatic & Autonomic) Nerve Fibers
VENTRAL RAMUS (More Complex)
• NERVE PLEXUSES are only found on ventral rami
• DEFINITION• Complex Nerve Network• The Ventral Rami of
Most Spinal Nerves Form Plexuses (Not T2 ‑ T12)
• Formed when the Ventral Rami of Several Spinal Nerves Exchange Fibers
• (Fibers Recombine) to Form New Nerves that Supply Specific Areas

VENTRAL RAMUS (Comments from the text)
• Fibers of several rami join to form individual nerves.
• Each nerve emerging from a plexus contains all the fibers that innervate a body region.
• Destination is basis for nerve’s name.• The plexus reduces the number of
nerves needed to supply a body part.• Since plexi are composed of fibers from
different spinal nerves, damage to one spinal nerve does not mean a complete loss of function in a body region
• But Instead, Partial Loss of Function in Several Areas
MAJOR PLEXUSES (ALL ARE PAIRED): CERVICAL PLEXUS
• CERVICAL PLEXUS•Formed by the Ventral Rami of
C1‑C4 and a Branch of Ventral Ramus of C5
•Provides Nerve Supply to Neck and Upper Shoulders and Part of Head
CERVICAL PLEXUS
MAJOR PLEXUSES (ALL ARE PAIRED):BRACHIAL PLEXUS
• BRACHIAL PLEXUS•Formed by the Ventral Rami of
C5‑T1•Provides Nerve Supply to Lower
Shoulders and Arms
BRACHIAL PLEXUS
MAJOR PLEXUSES (ALL ARE PAIRED): LUMBAR PLEXUS
• LUMBAR PLEXUS•Formed by the Ventral Rami of
L1‑L4
• SACRAL PLEXUS•Formed by the Ventral Rami of L4,
L5, & S1‑S4
• *Note: Together the Lumbar and the Sacral Plexuses (also the Coccygeal Plexus) Are Known as the Lumbosacral Plexus that Provides Nerve Supply to the Lower Trunk and the Legs
LUMBOSACRAL PLEXUS
Plexus Notes
• * Coccygeal Plexus: Formed by S4, S5, and Coccygeal Nerves
GENERALIZATIONS ABOUT SPINAL NERVES
• Spinal Nerves Are Not Named; •However, the Nerves That Emerge
From Plexuses Often Are Named•Examples: Phrenic Nerve, Sciatic
Nerve
• There is a Close Relationship Between Where a Spinal Nerve Exits the Spinal Cavity and the Area the Nerve Supplies
CRANIAL NERVES
• DEFINITION• Nerves That
Attach to the Undersurface of the Brain (Mainly the Brainstem)
• 12 Pair

Numbers

NERVE TYPES• Some Cranial Nerves Are Mixed,
Some Are Sensory, Some Are Motor • Saying to Remember Nerve Types:

III. FUNCTIONAL DIVISIONS OF THE PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
• Based on Direction in Which Neurons Conduct Nerve Impulses•AFFERENT (SENSORY) DIVISION
•aa, like baa•Af = toward•Consists of all Afferent Neurons• Includes all Spinal Nerves (Afferent
Fibers)as well as Cranial Nerves Which are Sensory and Mixed (Afferent Fibers)
III. FUNCTIONAL DIVISIONS OF THE PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
•EFFERENT (MOTOR) DIVISION•ee, like Lee or eff, like Jeff•Ef = away from•Consists of all Efferent Neurons• Includes all Spinal Nerves (Efferent
Fibers)as well as Cranial Nerves Which are Motor and Mixed (Efferent Fibers)
Two Efferent Subdivisions OF THE PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
•Two Subdivisions (Based on Effectors)– SOMATIC MOTOR NERVOUS SYSTEM
• Effectors are Voluntary: Skeletal Muscles
– THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM (Sympathetic & Parasympathetic
• Effectors are Involuntary: Cardiac Muscle, Smooth Muscle, and Glands
ANS has 2 Divisions:Sympathetic and Parasympathetic
• SYMPATHETIC DIVISION• THORACOLUMBAR• Nerves of the
Sympathetic Division Branch from Thoracic Spinal Nerves (T1‑T12) and from some Lumbar Spinal Nerves (L1‑L4)
• Explanation: Spinal Nerves are Mixed, Their Efferent Nerve Fibers are Somatic and Autonomic; The Autonomic Fibers are Sympathetic Nerves
ANS has 2 Divisions:Sympathetic and Parasympathetic
• PARASYMPATHETIC DIVISION• CRANIOSACRAL• Nerves of the Parasympathetic
Division Branch from some Cranial Nerves (III, VII, IX, X, XI) and from some Sacral Spinal Nerves (S2‑S4)
• Explanation: Cranial Nerves III and XI are Motor, the Remaining Cranial Nerves Listed (VII, IX, X) are Mixed; Spinal Nerves are Mixed; Efferent Fibers in All These Nerves are Somatic and Autonomic; The Autonomic Fibers are Parasympathetic Nerves
b. FUNCTIONS OF THE ANS
• OVERVIEW OF ANS FUNCTIONS•ANS REGULATES AUTONOMIC
EFFECTORS IN WAYS THAT MAINTAIN HOMEOSTASIS
•BOTH DIVISIONS:•CONTINUALLY CONDUCT NI'S TO
AUTONOMIC EFFECTORS (TONICALLY ACTIVE)
b. FUNCTIONS OF THE ANS
• EXERT ANTAGONISTIC INFLUENCES ON AUTONOMIC EFFECTORS
– Ex: If Sympathetic Division Stimulates an Autonomic Effector, then the Parasympathetic Division will Inhibit the Autonomic Effector
– *NOTE: ACTUAL EFFECT DEPENDS ON WHICH DIVISION DOMINATES (SITUATION)
•ANS INFLUENCED BY CEREBRAL CORTEX AND HYPOTHALAMUS
FUNCTIONS OF SYMPATHETIC DIVISION
• MAJOR FUNCTION• DURING STRESS PRODUCES THE FIGHT OR
FLIGHT REACTION• (SERVES AS THE BODY'S EMERGENCY
SYSTEM)
•Dominates during Stress (Physical or Psychological)
•During Stress Produces "Fight or Flight“ Reaction
Fight or Flight" Reaction
• A Collection of Changes in Autonomic Effectors which are Designed to Prepare the Individual to Respond to the Stress
• The Major Goal of all the Changes is to Get Skeletal Muscles Prepared to Expend Maximum Energy
SUMMARY OF MAJOR CHANGES THAT OCCUR IN THE FIGHT OR FLIGHT REACTION:
• *CARDIAC MUSCLE: • Rate/Strength of Heartbeat Increases
• *SMOOTH MUSCLE: • Of Blood Vessels
• Coronary, Skeletal Muscle: Dilate• Digestive Organ:
• Constrict• Of Hollow Organs
• Respiratory Airways: Dilate• Digestive Tract: Peristalsis Decreases
• *GLANDS• Sweat Glands: Production of Sweat Increases• Liver: Glycogen -----> Glucose• Adrenal Medulla: Secretion of Epinephrine
(Adrenalin) Increases
SYMPATHETIC DURING NONSTRESS
• DOMINATES SOME AUTONOMIC EFFECTORS
• MAINTAINS THEIR NORMAL FUNCTION• Ex: Cardiac Muscle
FUNCTIONS OF PARASYMPATHETIC DIVISION• DOMINATES MOST
AUTONOMIC EFFECTORS DURING NONSTRESS•Rest and Repair Division•Promotes Normal Digestive
System Activities•(For Example: Peristalsis and
Elimination)
