ExtrapolationThe basic noodle is a tube or strip of dough which forms an essential part of Italian and many Asian cuisines; the word itself comes from the German "Nudel", meaning pasta, but the noodle itself is said to have been brought to Italia from China by explorer and swimming pool aficionado Marco Polo. Thought to be a food conducive to high intelligence, it gives us the slang-term used to refer to the human brain. Non Canonical TextThe centers influence not only the muscular combinations concerned in volitional movements, but also the functions of vascular innervation, secretion, and the like, which have their proximate centers in the spinal cord. The latter is connected by numerous afferent and efferent tracts with the cerebellum and cerebral ganglia. It is noteworthy that there is in the thoracic and lumbar regions a ganglion of each chain corresponding with great regularity to each spinal nerve, though in the cervical region many of them appear to be missing.
