Ch 15 Lec 3 - Human Brain Flashcards
part of the mesencephalon that has the superior and inferior colliculi
corpora quadrigemina
receives visual input from thalamus in corpora quadrigemina
superior colliculi
receives auditory input from medulla in the corpora quadrigemina
inferior colliculi
rounded bulge on the underside of the brain stem
pons
pons separates blank from blank
midbrain, medulla
the pons is made of masses of blank matter and blank fibers
gray, nerve
pons blank impulses to and from blank and blank
relays, medulla, cerebrum
pons regulates blank

white, arbor vitae
cerebellum integrates blank information about the blank of body parts
sensory, position

muscle
cerebellum fine tunes blank and blank movements
voluntary, involuntary
this is a point of connection for several cranial nerves and goes from the foramen magnum to the pons
medulla oblongata
