Chapter 14, Problem 5RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The plexuses and nerves located in various muscles or regions of the body.
Introduction:
Plexus is the network of nerves or vessels. These vessels can be lymphatic vessels or blood vessels such as capillaries and veins. Peripheral nerves belong to the peripheral nervous system that helps in controlling the functioning of motor, sensation, and movement coordination.

- For each of the following body regions, name the peripheral nerve that carries somatic motor fibers to most of the skeletal muscles: flexor surface of the arm flexor surface of the forearm extensor surface of the arm and forearm anterior thigh posterior thigh anterior leg posterior legarrow_forwardWatch this short video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/facialnerve) to see an examination of the facial nerve usingsome simple tests. The facial nerve controls the musclesof facial expression. Severe deficits will be obvious inwatching someone use those muscles for normal control.One side of the face might not move like the other side. Butdirected tests, especially for contraction against resistance,require a formal testing of the muscles. The muscles of theupper and lower face need to be tested. The strength testin this video involves the patient squeezing her eyes shutand the examiner trying to pry her eyes open. Why does theexaminer ask her to try a second time?arrow_forwardDo you think the patellar reflex would be inhibited or enhanced by actively contracting the quadriceps muscle group? With an understanding of how muscle spindle fibers work, explain how active contraction of a muscle might affect the myotactic reflex.
