Basal nuclei/ganglia

A

Deep grey matter within Cerebrum

17
Q

White matter has fibers

A

Association fibers-within 1 hemisphere
Commissural fibers-between 2 hemispheres
Projection fibers-between cerebrum and other brain parts

18
Q

Thalamus

A

Relay between brain stem and cerebrum
Sorts sensory information

19

Hypothalamus

A

Autonomic Functions-regulate food/water intake, body temp, heart rate
Modulates pituitary function
-endocrine

20
Q

Midbrain

A

Relay between brain stem and thalamus
Coordinates smooth skeletal muscle activity

21

A

Visual/Auditory reflexes, part of midbrain

22
Q

Metencephalon

A

Pons and cerebellum

23
Q

Pons

A

Relay between brain stem and cerebellum, and between midbrain and medulla oblongata

24
Q

Cerebellum

A

Coordination, Balance, Equilibrium

25
Q

Mendulla Oblongata
