Spinal cord Devolops from caudal cylindrical part of neural tube Cavity of the tube bounded by thick lateral wall, thin roof and floor Tube subdivides in to three layers matrix layer, mantle layer and marginal layer Ventral layer of the mantle layer grows faster than dorsal layer Line seperating the compressed ventral part from the dorsal part is called sulcus limtans

- 24. Contd.. Dorsal nerveroot ganglia are formed by axons of the cells that develop from neural crest Axons from the post grey column enter the marginal layer to form the ascending tract Descending tracts are formed by the axons projecting from the brain Grey columns divide the white matter in to anterior, posterior and lateral columns
- 26. POSITIONAL CHANGES OF THE CORD In the third month of development the spinal cord extends the entire length of the embryo, and spinal nerves pass through the intervertebral foramina at their level of origin. With increasing age, the vertebral column and dura lengthen more rapidly than the neural tube, and the terminal end of the spinal cord gradually shifts to a higher level. At birth, this end is at the level of the third lumbar vertebra. As a result of this disproportionate growth, spinal nerves run obliquely from their segment of origin in the spinal cord to the corresponding level of the vertebral column. The dura remains attached to the vertebral column at the coccygeal level. In the adult, the spinal cord terminates at the level of L2 to L3, The dural sac and subarachnoid space extend to S2. Below L2 to L3, a threadlike extension of the pia mater forms the filum terminale, which is attached to the periosteum of the first coccygeal vertebra and which marks the tract of regression of the spinal cord. Nerve fibers below the terminal end of the cord collectively constitute the cauda equina.
