Will pain be felt upon stimulation of the central stump of the left vagus nerve if it was ligated? Explain
Peyton felt strange when she awoke one morning. She could not hold a pen in her right hand when trying to write an entry in her diary, and her muscles were noticeably weaker on the right side of her body. Additionally, her husband noticed that she was slurring her speech, so he took her to the emergency room. What does the ER physician suspect has occurred? Where in the brain might the physician suspect that abnormal activity or perhaps a lesion is located, and why?
Describe the structure of a peripheral nerve, and explain the differences between spinal nerves and cranial nerves?
