Explanation / Answer

the spinal nerves are divided into

cervical

thorasic

lumbar

sacral

coccygeal nerves

there are 8 pairs of cervical spinal nerves.c1 is sub occipital nerve,c2 is greater occipital nerve,c3 is third occipital nerve (c1-c4 is cervical plexues),(c5-T1) is brachial plexues.

14)phrenic nerve originate from c3-c5 nerves.it is mainly arise from c4 and get contribution from c3 and c5.c4 nerve belongs to cervical plexues so its main origin is cervical plexues.it passes posterior to the subclavian vein as it enters the thorax.it sends motar fibers to diagphragm, and sensory fibers to pericardium,pluera,peritonium of diaphragm.

15) ventral rami is the anterior division of spinal nerves.its branches are unite to form nerve plexues.they are cervical, thorasic,lumbar and sacral plexues.they inervate the sensory and motar signal in antero lateral thorax and limbs.

16)dermatome:the area of skin that is supplied by single spinal nerve.

drematomal map:it is the imaginary diagramatic representation of dermatoma on the human body.

in the clinical aspect these are helpful to detect the nerve damage.

17)the pheripheral nervous system include both spinal nerves and cranial nerves.
