Ventral Root of Spinal Nerve. The ventral root (motor root) of each spinal nerve consists of axons from motor neurons whose cell bodies are found within the gray matter of the spinal cord. A ventral root and a dorsal root unite to form a spinal nerve, which passes outward from the vertebral canal through an intravertebral foramen (bone opening). A posterior branch (posterior ramus) of each spinal nerve turns toward the posterior to innervate muscles and skin of the back.
Studies to date suggest that the planktonic-biofilm transition is a complex and highly regulated process. The results reviewed in this article indicate that the formation of biofilms serves as a new model system for the study of microbial development.tudies to date suggest that the planktonic-biofilm transition is a complex and highly regulated process.

Although there are examples of regulatory processes that occur at all stages in molecular biology of bacterial cells (see Table 1 above), the most common points of regulation are at the level of transcription (e.g. enzyme induction and enzyme repression) and changing the activity of preexisting proteins.
