Chapter 4: Brain Strictures And Functional Systems Flashcards
Hindbrain
Pons
Medulla
Cerebellum
Pons
Contain raphe nuclei
Cerebellum
Little brain, controls motor skills. Compares expected sensory.
Medulla
Breathing heart rate vomiting
Midbrain
Tectum- superior and inferior colliculus
Superior colliculus- vision
Inferior colliculus- hearing
Substantia nigra- collection of dopamine neurons
Superior colliculus
In the tectum, responsible for vision
Inferior colliculus
Hearing
Thalamus
Deep nuclei in the forebrain
Basal ganglia
Important for motor control
The limbic system
Associated with motivation and emotion
Hypothalamus
Feeding fleeing fighting and fucking
Cortical lobes
Occipital lobe
Partial love
Temporal lobe
Frontal lobe
Cranial nerves II, III & V
II- optic nerve
III- oculomotor
V- trigeminal nerve
Oculomotor nerve (III)
Enables most movements of the eye “ocular. Motor”
Optic nerve (II)
Transmits visual information from retina to brain
Trigeminal nerve
Movements and sensation in face
Dorsal root ganglion
Cell bodies of primary sensory neurons
Compared expected sensory
Cerebellum
Which part of the brain is the tectum located?
Midbrain
The 4 F’s
Fight flee fuck feed
Hypothalamus
Cluster of nuclei de p in the forebrain
Thalamus
changes in the membrane potential of the postsynaptic terminal of a chemical synapse.
Post synaptic potential
Important for motor control ( not cerebellum)
Basal ganglia
