Hey you. I was just using the KISS method... so to be simplistic.. leaving the spine.... a picture for folks.. sorry I wasn't more accurate... I know you were just being overly kind to me, cause I am your favorite... Carolyn notan ostrich <notan_ostrich@...> wrote: Carolyn wrote: ...

....This has come up before but I don't see that the vagus is ever in the spine. Do you mean it leaves from following along the spine? The spine leaves the skull through the foramen magnum and the vagus leaves the skull through the jugular foramen (jugular canal) and immediately branches, some going out away from the spine and others continue along the spine branching a little lower down (C3, C4) and then branching throughout the chest and abdomen. .For those that would like to know more, see:http://www.instantanatomy.net/diagrams/HN127.jpghttp://www.medicalook.com/systems_images/Vagus_nerves.jpghttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4b/Gray793.pnghttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3c/Gray806.pnghttp://www.biochemsoctrans.org/bst/034/1037/bst0341037f01.htm?resolution=HIGHhttp://www.neuroanatomy.wisc.edu/virtualbrain/Images/08B.jpgnotan 4-H Leader extraordinaire!
