Purpose
Brain area responsible for decision making at the highest level for motor
What is The dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC)?
Premotor connection
What is the DLPFC and the cerebellum?
This is caused by a deficit in the DLPFC
What are perseveration and utilization?
The pathway is part of volitional movement pathway, and is responsible for voluntary movement of your spinal muscles.
What are the Lateral and anterior corticospinal tract?
I am the last area to be myelinated
What is the DLPFC?
Brain area responsible for establishing the motor plan for visually guided actions.
What is the premotor area?
Muscle Fibers connection
What is the spinal cord?
A deficit in the primary motor causes this
What is contralateral paralysis?
Also about volitional movement of your face, jaw, and tongue
What is the corticobulbar tract?
Brain area where axons originate that wind up running through the corona radiata and internal capsule
What is primary motor area?
Brain area responsible for establishing motor plan for internally guided actions
What is supplementary motor area?
Motor neurons connection
What is primary motor?
This is caused by a deficit in the cerebellum
What is ataxia?
Tract responsible for reflexive movement. Helps you to move your head in response to visual stimulation.
What is the colliculospinal aka tectospinal tract?
Where motor fibers are located in the midbrain
What are cerebral peduncles?
Area responsible for transmission and synapses.
What is the brain stem?
Primary motor connection
What is the Premotor/supplemental motor?
This is caused by a deficit in the basal ganglia
What is trembling and initiation deficit?
Tract about adjusting how you are in space based on information from the semicircular canals
What is the vestibulo spinal tract?
Motor fibers in the anterior aspect of the medulla
What are pyramids?
Feedback loop area responsible for triggering movement
What is basil ganglia?
Cortex via thalamus connection
What is the basal ganglia?
This is caused by a deficit in the brain stem
What is spasticity and flaccidity?
Control involuntary movements of internal organs. You do not have control over the movements.
What are autonomic pathways?
Crossing of the right and left fibers in the medulla
What is the decussation of the pyramids?
