Voluntary Motion And Basal Ganglia - 4/26 Karius Flashcards
Information from VIP goes to where?
Fx?
F4
Creates a detailed map of the space around you (excited by proximity)
What does the superior parietal cortex do?
Provides information about where you are in space
Input from superior parietal cortex goes where?
Fx?
F2
Map of where your arm is in relationship to your body and the things around you
The anterior intraparietal area and PFG contains neurons that respond to?
Seeing an object to grasp (visually Dom)
Grapsing an object (motor Dom)
Either condition (visuomotor neurons)
The anterior intraparietal area and PFG relay their info to where?
F5
What do the F5 neurons fire with?
The goal NOT the motor act
The Premotor cortex receives sensory info from where?
Fx?
F4 and F5 - the ventral parts
IDs the intent of the motion and decides what motion to produce
The dorsal part of the Premotor cortex does what?
Applies the rules that determine whether it is appropriate to move
The supplementary motor area (SMA) is responsible for what?
Pre-SMA responsible for what?
Postural control
Plans the motor program required to make the action occur
Fx of the supplementary motor cortex?
Organize motor sequences and acquire motor skills
Executive control (switch strategies)
Give 3 characteristics about the primary motor cortex
Precentral gyrus
Controls specific movements
Arranged in columns
What layer of the primary motor cortex receives sensory input (Muscle and joint proprio)?
Layer 4
What layer becomes the output for the corticospinal (pyramidal) pathway?
Layer 5
What are the 2 kinds of columns?
On/off for agonist muscle
Off/on for the antagonist muscle
What are the roles of the cerebellum?
Sequence complex actions
Correct force/direction
Balance and eye movements
Learning of complex actions
Where is the spinocerebellum located?
Fx?
Centrally on either side of the vermis
Central - postural control
Either side - Force and direction
