Which cranial nerves originate from the midbrain?
Cranial nerve 3 and 4
Which cranial nerves arise from rostral midbrain?
Cranial nerve 1 and 2
Anterior median fissure
Cross section of spinal cord that continues in the brain stem
Pontine nucleus
Relays information from the cerebrum to the cerebellum
Cerebral peduncles
Stalks connecting cerebrum to the midbrain. Consists of motor tracts of the corticospinal, corticobulbar and corticopontine axons to the midbrain and spinal cord
Inferior olivary nucleus?
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)
Constituents of medulla
Olives and pyramids
Enteric centre
Nuclei in medulla to induce vomiting
What is the medullary rhymic centre?
Nuceli in medulla and pons which is the respiratory centre
What is the deglutition centre?
Promotes swallowing of food from oral cavity into pharynx
What is the medullary rhythmic centre?
