Q

what do the pyramidal tracts do and where are they located?

A
  • Organised in 1a and 1b

Q

where are extrapyramidal tracts and what do they do?

A
  • Organised in 2b, 2c and 2d
  • Responsible for coordination of automatic movements of location and posture (e.g to painful stimuli) (2b)
  • Automatic movements of arm in response to posture/balance changes (2a)
  • Regulates posture to maintain balance, and facilitates mainly a motoneurons of postural, antigravity (extensor) muscles

Q

what are the primitive reflexes?

A

reflexes seen in babies

  1. Moro reflex
    1. When babies neck suddenly extended
    2. Arms adduct then abduct
    3. Develops 28-32 weeks gestation and disappears 3-6 months
  2. Standing reflex
    1. In newborn at 3 months
    2. On trying to make baby stand on his legs:
      1. Extension of lower extremities
      2. Hips slightly flexed behind shoulder
      3. Head free to turn
  3. 6-9 months get protective reflexes (parachute reflex)
    1. Protects with outstretched arms
