Cerebellum Lab Flashcards
Middle cerebellar peduncle
input from the cortex via the pons (pontine nuclei)
Superior Cerebellar Peduncle
output to cortex to thalamus and red nucleus
Inferior cerebellar peduncle
input from body and inferior olive
output to vestibular nuclei
on going movement
spinocerebellum
vestibulocerebellum
planning for movement
cerebrocerebellum
movements that are uncoordinated or inaccurate due to any damage to motor areas
ataxia
Decomposition of complex multi-joint movements into the parts
dyssynergia
poor control of speed and distance for coordinated movements
dysmetria
Intention tremors occur during
planned and controlled movement
What is a common movement with intention trmors
ending point of movement is often missed or overshot/undershot
Damage to cerebellum produced deficit on ____ side of body
same
Cerebellar lesions causes no
learning as shown by continued poor acuracy
T/F frogs with surgically tilted eyes never adapt
True
inferior olive lesions and pons lesion (do or do not) distrupt adaptation
do
Damage to the VA/VL thalamus does or does not produce impairment to adaptation
does not
