The correct Answer is:
To determine the truthfulness of the given statements regarding the nervous system, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement (a)**: "Sensory ganglion concerned with spinal reflex arc is located in ventral root of spinal cord." - **Analysis**: This statement is **False**. The sensory ganglion, which contains the cell bodies of sensory neurons, is actually located in the dorsal root of the spinal cord, not the ventral root. The ventral root contains motor neurons that exit the spinal cord to innervate muscles. 2. **Statement (b)**: "Spinal accessory and hypoglossal nerves are not cranial nerves in frog." - **Analysis**: This statement is **False**. Both the spinal accessory nerve (cranial nerve XI) and the hypoglossal nerve (cranial nerve XII) are considered cranial nerves in frogs, as they arise from the brain and are involved in motor functions. 3. **Statement (c)**: "Parasympathetic ganglia lie near or within the visceral organs." - **Analysis**: This statement is **True**. Parasympathetic ganglia are indeed located close to or within the organs they innervate, such as the heart, lungs, and digestive organs, allowing for localized control of organ function. 4. **Statement (d)**: "Sympathetic nerve fibres constitute the thoracico-lumbar outflow." - **Analysis**: This statement is **True**. The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system is characterized by its thoracolumbar outflow, meaning that the sympathetic fibers originate from the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord. ### Summary of Statements: - (a) False - (b) False - (c) True - (d) True ### Final Answer: - The correct options with respect to true and false statements are: - (a) False - (b) False - (c) True - (d) True

The human neural system consists of central neural system (CNS) and peripheral neural system (PNS), how many statements correct for human neural system? i. The CNS includes the brain and the spinal cord ii. The PNS comprises of all the nerves of the body associated with the CNS iii. PNS consist of cranial nerve and spinal nerve iv. The PNS is divided into two divisions called somatic neural system and autonomic neural system v. The efferent nerve fibres of PNS transmit impulses from tissues/organs to the CNS vi. Afferent fibres of PNS transmit regulatory impulses from the CNS to the concerned peripheral tissues/organs.
