Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The lumbar plexus is an essential collection of nerves that arise from mostly the lumbar spinal cord. The term plexus refers to a “web” of nerves that is created just lateral to where T12-L5 exit the spinal cord via intervertebral foramina.

Detailed explanation-2: -The sacral plexus is a network of nerves formed by the lumbosacral trunk (L4, L5) and sacral spinal nerves (S1-S4). The sacral plexus is located on the posterior pelvic wall, posterior to the internal iliac vessels and ureter, and anterior to the piriformis muscle.

Detailed explanation-3: -The iliohypogastric nerve is created from spinal levels T12 and L1. The ilioinguinal nerve derives from a branch of the L1 spinal nerve. The genitofemoral nerves arise from the superior aspects of L1 and L2 spinal nerves. More items
