A Mountain Lion sustains a spinal injury that severs the axons of sensory interneurons in lateral white matter. Draw a labeled wiring diagram to illustrate and explain in words how and why the mountain lion’s ability to both jump and land smoothly will be affected by this injury. Show the connectivity between proprioceptors, interneurons, and the involved regions of the brain, and identify the damaged region of the spinal cord. Please also describe the type of neurons (diameter and myelination) that carry this information.
