Exam 5 Pt. 3 Flashcards
brainstem
medulla oblongata, pons, midbrain
cerebellum
coordinates motor commands with sensory inputs to control movements
vermis
separates two hemispheres
primary fissure
separates two lobes
anterior lobe
coordinates postural adjustments
middle lobe
adjusts fine motor movements
flocculonodular
coordinates the bodies position in space
molecular layer of cerebellum
outer layer, golgi cells, basket cells, and stellate cells
purkinje cells
middle layer, purkinje cells
granular layer
inner layer, granular cells
dorsal spinocerebellar tract
temp, proprioception, and touch from the lower body and legs
cuneocerebellar tract
temp, proprioception and touch from the arms and trunk
ventral spinocerebellar tract
proprioception and pain from lower trunk and the legs
rostral spinocerebellar tract
proprioception and pain from arms and upper trunk
olivocerebellar tract
communication between two cerebellar
medulla oblongata
pyramidal decussation, site of corticospinal nerves crossing left to right and right to left
pons
bridge to connect medulla, midbrain and cerebellum, pathway for communication within the cerebellum
midbrain
connects forebrain and hind brain, regulation and coordination of movements
cerebral peduncles
communicating pathways to and from cerebrum
