Q

What is the supplementary motor area used for?

A

Externally cued movements ( Like kicking a ball or picking up a glass

17
Q

What is the pre central motor area used for?

A

Internally cued complex movements like speech generation

18
Q

What is the anagram for Prefrontal cortex?

A

APPS

19
Q

What are the respective words for the anagram APPS?

A

A- Attention
P-Personality
P- Planning and decision making
S- Adjusting Social behaviour

20
Q

Using APPS what would a prefrontal cortex lesion lead to?

A

Lack of attention
Personality change
Inability to plan actions
Inappropriate behaviour

21
Q

What is the way to remember the 4 main roles of the parietal lobe?

A

Sensation- touch, pain, temperature, pressure, vibration
Sensory aspect of language
Sixth Sense- Proprioception

22
Q

Where is brocas area found? And what would a lesion in. this area lead to?

A

Left frontal lobe, Expressive Aphasia

23
Q

What are the 3 types of white matter tracts?

A

Association fibres, Commissural fibres and projection fibres?

24
Q

What type of white matter tract is Short U Fibres ? What does it connect?

A

Association and they connect gyri

25
Q

What are the main 4 types of long fibres?

A

Superior longitudinal fassiculus, Inferior longitudinal fassiculus, Arcuate Fassiculus and Unicate Fassiculus

26
Q

What connects the frontal and occipital lobe?

A

Superior Longitudinal Fassiculus

27
Q

What connects the frontal and temporal lobe?

A

Arcuate fassiculus

28
Q

What connects the temporal and occipital lobe?

A

Inferior longitudinal fassiculus

29
Q

What connects the anterior frontal lobe and temporal lobe?

A

Unicate fassiculus

30
Q

What is the function of commissural fibres?

A

Connect the left and right hemispheres of the brain

31
Q

What are the main 2 commissural fibres?

A

Corpus Callasum and Anterior commisure

32
Q

What is the function of the projection fibres? One to remember

A

Connect cortex with lower brain structures, Corona Radiata
