Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The Ventral Root of the spinal nerve contains outgoing, efferent (meaning to “bear away from") fibers that carry information destined to control motor or glandular function. The cell bodies of these motor neurons are located in the ventral horns of the spinal cord’s central grey region.
Detailed explanation-2: -Ventral root avulsion injuries results in severed motor axons, which are separated from their somata in the spinal cord.
Detailed explanation-3: -If the ventral root of the spinal cord is cut, it will stop transmitting impulses from the CNS to the effector organs. The person will suffer from partial or complete paralysis.
