    30s
  • Q3
    A practitioner wants to test the sensory innervation of the S2 dermatome of Ricky’s lower extremity. What area would the practitioner test?
    Medial aspect of the thigh
    Top of the pinky toe
    Medial aspect of the leg
    Posterior aspect of the thigh
    30s
  • Q4
    All spinal nerves that contribute to a peripheral nerve all have equal role in the innervation of the myotome.
    TRUE
    FALSE
    30s
  • Q5
    Which sensory fiber type receptor is supplied by skin mechanoreceptors, thermal receptors, and nociceptors?
    C
    Ay
    III
    II
    30s
  • Q6
    Which of the following is not a result of plexopathy?
    Widespread, bilateral motor involvement affects the limbs
    Autonomic disturbances occur
    Loss of reflexes
    Sensory disturbances occurs in multiple dermatomes
    30s
  • Q7
    What happens during myasthenia gravis?
    The bouton of the neuron does not release enough acetylcholine, causing less muscle contraction.
    The acetylcholinesterase in the motor end plate is inhibited, resulting in excessive amounts of acetylcholine attaching to receptors and muscle contraction to persist (spasticity).
    There is a lesion in the ventral root of the spinal nerve disrupting motor innervation of the muscles.
    Antibodies attack the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, causing acetylcholine to be unable to attach to the receptors and is instead broken down.
