Nerve roots in the spine are the key component of intervertebral disks. a. true b. false

The correct answer is - false.

Explanation:

The nerve root is the beginning part of a nerve that leaves CNS and the spinal cord. It is the initial part of the nerve that is present in between the intervertebral disks and runs through spines which acts as a shock absorber and protects these nerves to any type of damage to these nerves.

The nerve root is not the component of the inter-vertebral disks but initial part of the nerves which are protected by these shock absorbers.

Thus, the correct answer is - false.
