Question

in which segment of the spinal cord can we find the lateral horn?
cervical
coccygeal
cranial
thoracic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The lateral horn of the spinal cord is associated with the sympathetic nervous system. It is present in the thoracic (and upper lumbar) segments of the spinal cord. The cervical segment mainly has motor and sensory functions related to the neck and upper limbs. The coccygeal segment is at the very end of the spinal cord with minimal neural function in most cases. The cranial is not a segment of the spinal cord (the spinal cord has cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal segments; cranial relates to the brain).

Answer:

Thoracic
