Q

Inferior olivary nucleus?

A

In the olives of the medulla obloganta and receives input from superior structures of the cerebral cortex, red nuclei and from the spinal cord. It regulates cerebellar neurons for motor learning (muscle memory)

Q

What is the cardiovascular centre?

A

Nuclei in medulla which regulates inotropy and chronotropy and diameter of blood vessels

17
Q

What is the CNS nuclei?

A

Collection of cell bodies

18
Q

What are local circuit neurons?

A

Neurons which have an axon and dendron close to the cell body. They receive input from somatic sensory receptors and provide input to the brain by interconnecting to coordinate rhythmic activity in specific muscle groups, such as alternating flexion and extension of the lower limbs during walking.
