Anatomy
The lateral ventricles
What are the largest ventricles
Ventral horn
Location for cell body of first order sensory neurons.
DRG
This cranial nerve innervates upper cervical muscles
CN 11 - accessory
K+
Ion responsible for repolarization after depolarization has occurred.
The plane that divides the brain into right and left halves.
Saggital
Sympathetic efferent location
What is the intermediate horn of the spinal cord
A quick stretch
Activates the muscle spindle.
White matter tracts for CN 2, 4, 6, and the vestibular nucelus
What is the medial longitudinal fasciculus
Neurotransmitter released by the substantia nigra
Dopamine
The somatotopic representation on the post central gyrus supplied by the ACA is for what body part and what modality?
What is the foot and sensation
Motor commands for precise hand movements come from through which tract
Provides precise sensory information
What are small receptor fields
This cranial nerve innervates thoracic and abdominal viscera
What is CN 10
Cerebellar output to the thalamus comes through this structure
DCN
The superior colliculus must connect with this structure to produce conscious awareness of ________input
Lateral geniculus/ vision
TWO brain regions that impact movement without a direct connection to the LMN.
BG and cerebellum
The organ that is activated when traveling up in an elevator
What is the Saccule
This cranial nerve has three sensory divisions. There are called....
CN 5. Opthalmic, maxillary, mandibular
What happens if the direct BG pathway is more active than the indirect pathway
Increased movement through decreased inhibition of thalamic activation of motor cortices
These 3 structures all have receptors that are hair cells.
Hearing, semicircular canals, otoliths
Type of aphasia in which the patient has difficulty stating words and appears aware of and frustrated by their deficit.
Broca's aphasia
Loss of vision in the left half of the visual field of both eyes is called this.
Left homonymous hemianopsia.
A patient with a drooping, asymmetrical smile affecting the right side of the mouth, but symmetrical eyebrow lifting has this kind of lesion
UMN lesion/ contralateral (Left)
The area of the CNS that incurs secondary cell death after an ischemic event.
Penumbra
