Solution

The correct answers are:

  • Emerges from the base of the brain

  • Part of the central nervous system

The spinal cord does not extend down the ventral side of the body, it extends down the dorsal side. Also, it does not emerge from the front of the brain, it emerges from the base of the brain.
