Solution

The correct option is D A - 5, B - 4, C - 1, D - 2, E - 5
  • The spinal nerves are part of the peripheral nervous system. The spinal nerve emerges from the spinal column through an opening (intervertebral foramen) between adjacent vertebrae.
  • These are grouped into the corresponding cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal regions of the spine.
  • The sacral nerves are the five pairs of spinal nerves that exit the sacrum at the lower end of the vertebral column.
  • The thoracic nerves are the twelve spinal nerves emerging from the thoracic vertebrae.
  • The coccygeal nerve is the 31st pair of spinal nerves. It does not divide into a medial and lateral branch. It is distributed to the skin over the back of the coccyx.
  • The cervical nerves are the spinal nerves from the cervical vertebrae. They are 7 in number.
  • The lumbar nerves are the five spinal nerves emerging from the lumbar vertebrae.
  • They are divided into posterior and anterior divisions.
Therefore correct combination is A - 5, B - 4, C - 1, D - 2, E - 5.
Hence option E is correct.
