Cerebellum

Question 1

Cerebellum differs from that of other motor areas such as the basal ganglia in two major ways (2):

Answer 1

1. unlike most other parts of the CNS, the cerebellum is wired up so that one side affects the ipsilateral side of the body
2. unlike the basal ganglia, the cerebellum makes extensive use of sensory inputs

Question 2

spinocerebellum

Answer 2

vermis and paravermis (also called the medial hemispheres) form the spinocerebellum

Question 3

Cerebrocerebellum

Answer 3

Lateral hemisphere of cerebellum

Question 4

Lateral hemisphere nucleus

Answer 4

Project to the dentate nuclei which take their name from their variegated, tooth-like appearance in a horizontal section

Question 5

Paravermis (medial hemisphere) nucleus

Answer 5

innervates the interposed nuclei

Question 6

Vermis nuclei

Answer 6

projects to the fastigial nuclei

Question 7

Flocculondular lobe

Answer 7

does not have nucleus within the cerebellum but is extensively interconnected with the vestibular system, using the bestibular nuclei of the brainstem for its output

Question 8

Lateral Hemisphere inputs

Answer 8

Pre and primary motor cortex

Question 9

Medial Hemisphere inputs

Answer 9

Primary motor cortex, some spinal cord

Question 10

Vermis Inputs

Answer 10

Spinal cord, vestibular nuclei

Question 11

Flocculondodular Lobe Inputs

Answer 11

vestibular nuclei

Question 12

L. Hemisphere deep nucleus

Answer 12

dentate

Question 13

M. Hemisphere deep nucleus

Answer 13

interposed

Question 14

Vermis deep nucleus

Answer 14

Fastigial

Question 15

Flocculondular lobe deep nucleus

Answer 15

vestibular nuclei, fastigial

Question 16

L. Hemisphere outputs

Answer 16

Thalamus (VL) to pre-motor cortex

Question 17

M. Hemisphere outputs

Answer 17

Thalamus (VL) to primary motor cortex

Question 18

Vermis outputs

Answer 18

Vestibular nuclei, reticular formation

Question 19

Flocculondodular lobe outputs

Answer 19

vestibular nuclei

Question 20

L. Hemisphere function

Answer 20

planning movement

Question 21

M. Hemisphere function

Answer 21

correcting movement

Question 22

Vermis Function

Answer 22

Adjusting posture

Question 23

Flocculonodular Lobe

Answer 23

Balance, coordinated eye movements
