The innervation of the hind gut of the domestic fowl. 1979

A R Tindall

1. The intestinal nerve adjacent to the colon in the domestic fowl, contains motor fibres descending from the vagal and sympathetic thoracicolumbar outflows. 2. No electrophysiological or histological evidence for the existence of motor fibres ascending from the sacral part of the central nervous system could be obtained; ascending sensory fibres, however, were readily demonstrated.

D002988	Cloaca	A dilated cavity extended caudally from the hindgut. In adult birds, reptiles, amphibians, and many fishes but few mammals, cloaca is a common chamber into which the digestive, urinary and reproductive tracts discharge their contents. In most mammals, cloaca gives rise to LARGE INTESTINE; URINARY BLADDER; and GENITALIA.	Cloacas
