| The circumoral nerve ring runs round the mouth and sends fibres to innervate the peristome, mouth and oesophagus. |
| The hypoglossal and glossopharyngeal nerves innervate pharyngeal dilator muscles. |
| Gamma motoneurons that innervate the muscle spindles and affect the spindle outflow are often referred to as the fusimotor system. |
| There, sciatic branches innervate the biceps femoris, semitendinosus and semimembranosus muscles, and part of the adductor magnus muscle. |
| Some of the axons innervate the pterygopalatine ganglion, and others project to the submandibular ganglion. |
| The peripheral nerves that innervate the body arise from the spinal cord as 31 pairs of segmental spinal nerves. |
