Spinal Descending Traits Flashcards
Alar plates are asscociated with
Sensory
Basal Plates are associated with
Motor
What is the function of the cortico Spinal
Precise and skilled voulnary Movement
Whatis the origin and destination of the Corticosinal tract
Primary and secondar Cortex, parietal lobe
Internucncial neurons or alpha motor neurons
The corticospinal tract cross and continue as
Lateral Corticospinal: Length of cord
Anterior Corticospinal: Stops mid-thoracic
What is the function of the Reticulospinal
Inhibit or facilatate voluntary movement
What is the origin and destination of the Reticuospinal
Reticular formation
Alpha and gamma motor neurons
What are the two tracts that cross
Reticulospinal and corticospinal
What is the function of the tectospinal
Reflex postural movemnt to visula stimuli
What is the origin and destination of the tectospinal
Superior Colliculus
Alpha and Gamma motor neurons
What is the function of the rubrospinal
Facilitates flexors and inhibits extenosrs
What is the origin and destination of the rubrospinal tract
Red Nucleud
Alpha and gamma motor neurons
What tract reveices cerebral and cerebellar information
Rubrospinal
What is the function of the Vestibulospinal tract
Facilitates extensors and inhibts flexors
What is the origin and destination of the vestibulo tract
Lateral vestibular nucleus
Alpha and gamma motor neurons
