Cerebrospinal fluid fills the space between the dural sheath and dura mater, dural sheath and vertebral bones, arachnoid mater and pia mater, dura mater and pia mater. Motor commands are carried by both anterior and posterior roots, ascending tracts, spinal nerves, cranial nerves, descending tracts from the brain to the spinal cord. Nerve fibers are insulated from one another by perineurium, endoneurium, fascicles, connective tissue, blood vessels. A ganglion is a cluster of neurosomas in the PNS, while dendrites cluster in the CNS. The anterior rami of the spinal nerves form nerve plexuses in all regions except the thoracic region, including the cervical, lumbar, and sacral regions. Which of the following is an ascending tract of the spinal cord? Lateral tectospinal tract, Medial reticulospinal tract, Ventral corticospinal tract, Vestibulospinal tract, Gracile fasciculus.
