Cerebellum Flashcards
exam 1
cerebellum are connected by

inferior cerebellum is found in the ______ and mostly contains ____ to cerebellum
found in the medulla and mostly contains inputs to cerebellum
Middle cerebellum found in ______
`and contains only ____ to cerebellum
found in pons and only input to cerebellum
superior cerebellum found in ______ and contains mostly _____ from cerebellum
found in midbrain and mostly contain output from cerebellum
lesions in cerebellar leads to
ipsilateral deficits
does the cerebellum contain more neurons than the cerebral cortex?
heck yea
what is vulnerable for occlusion?
4th ventricle
Mollaret’s triangle
is a sel-contained circuit involving the inferior olive, dentate and red nucleus
climbing fibers from the inferior olive go where?
direct to the purkinje fibers
what is the order in which cells receives the input in the cerebellum?
internal granular (packed with cells) —> Molecular —>Purkinje
most incoming fibers synapse on
granular cell dendrites
what are the deep cerebellar nuclei?
output nuclei
vermis involved with
trunkal control
flocculondular lobe?
vestibulocerebellum
vestibulocerebellum receives input t (and its output is to) ________ and when lesioned it affects
input from vestibular nuclei and when lesioned it affects balance and gait ataxia
