Cerebrum
Name of the groove that separates the frontal and parietal lobes
Central sulcus
Structures that make up the brain stem
Midbrain, pons, medulla
Where are the basal nuclei located?
deep in the cerebrum
This is the upper part of the brain stem and has superior and inferior colliculi (aka corpora quadrigemina) which control visual and auditory reflexes.
Midbrain
(True/False) the spinal cord is surrounded by meninges
TRUE
Frontal Lobe
What ventricle(s) are housed in the cerebrum?
Lateral Ventricles (1 & 2)
What is the function(s) of the basal nuclei?
Regulation of voluntary motor movement
Contains centers that control things such as HR, RR, and BP
Medulla
What (if anything) can be found in the epidural space of the spinal cord?
Adipose Tissue
Lobe of the cerebrum responsible for receiving general sensory information such as pain or touch
Parietal Lobe
Nucleus or center
Disease: When the neurons of the Basal Nuclei that make dopamine die, leading to tremors and bradykinesia
Parkinson's
Houses the apneustic and pneumotaxic centers
Pons
Name of the section of the end of the spinal cord
Conus Medullaris
This deep groove separates the cerebrum from the cerebellum
Transverse Fissure
Ganglion
This is an iatrogenic disease that causes symptoms such as slowness of movement and tremors
Tardive dyskinesia
Part of the brainstem that has neither projection tracts nor cranial nerves
TRICK QUESTION!
The brainstem has all of these. Otherwise it would not work!
The Spinal cord is stabilized in place by...?
Denticulate ligaments
The deep part of the cerebrum is composed primarily of...
(White or Grey Matter)
White Matter
This structure, located in the midbrain, helps to circulate CSF
This genetic disorder where the basal nuclei degenerate; leading to rhythmic and random involuntary movements and dementia.
Huntington's Disease
Where can you find CSF within the brain stem?
Where Afferent somas are found?
Dorsal root ganglion
