A
- maintenance of equilibrium
- posture and muscle tone
- coordination and movement
- hearing

outer - molecular layer
intermediate - purkinje layer
inner - granular layer
4
Q
outer layer of the internal cerebellum
A
molecular layer
5
Q

A
perkinje layer
6
Q

A
granular layer
7
Q
fastigial nuclei
A
muscle tone, posture, balance, vestibulo/reticulospinal pathway
8
Q
globose nuclei
A
muscle tne and posture via red nucleus in rubrspinal
9
Q
dentate nuclei
A
muscular coordination
10
Q
emboliform
A
muscle tne and posture via red nucleus in rubrospinal
11
Q
order of cerebellar nuclei left to right
A
dentate
emboliform
glbose
fastigial
12
Q
globose and emboliform
A
have two pathways
- a direct prjection to the red nucleus and then to the effector limb
- an indirect pathway via thalamocortical projections to modify the action of the effectpr limb
