In descending motor pathways, such as the ventral and lateral corticospinal tracts, _________________ neurons originate in the gray matter of the brain and send long axons down a descending tract of the spinal cord. These axons synapse with ________________ neurons in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. The axons of these neurons will then exit the spinal cord and innervate the muscles or glands of the body.

In an ascending pathway, axons of the secondary neuron travel from theMultiple Choicereceptor to the spinal cord.receptor to the brain.spinal cord through the brainstem to the thalamus.thalamus to the cerebral cortex.spinal cord to cerebellum.

he axons of neurons enter the dorsal surface of the spinal cord, while the axons of neurons exit from the ventral surface of the spinal cord.

describe the anatomy of the axon terminal, synaptic cleft, synaptic vesicles, the steps of the transmission of the signal at the neuromuscular junction and general role of neurotransmitters at the presynaptic and postsynaptic membrane.
