spinal trats 2.0 Flashcards
tectospinal
mediate reflex head and neck movement due to visual stimuli
inputs from tectospinal
cervical mainly
fibres of the tectospinal cross where
midbrain
reticulospinal tract fibres from the pons
facilitate extensor movement and inhibit flexor
reticulospinal tract fibres from the medulla
facilitate extensor movement and inhibit extension
vestibulospinal tract
antigravity extensor muscles from information from the vestibular system and cerebellum
what to parts of the brain receive inputs from the cerebellum and the vestibular apparatus in the vestibulospinal tract
pons and medulla
deliberate rigidty and paraplegia in extension
vestibulospinal tract
cerbellar lesion ipsilateral or contralateral
ipsilateral
basal ganglia c or i
c
lesions of the BG cause
changes in muscle tone
dyskinesias

skin over angle of mandible and some of external ear - named nerve
