| What are the Three parts of the Brain Stem (top to bottom)? | Midbrain, Pons, Medulla Oblongata | |
| Function of Midbrain | relay of motor info from cerebral cortex to pons, sends sensory input from spine to thalamus | |
| Function of Pons | relays impulses from one side of cerebellum to the other, relays impulses from medulla to midbrain | |
| Function of Medulla Oblongata | relays motor and sensory between spine and brain, regulates heartbeat, blood vessel dilation, conciousness and arousal | |
| Which of three parts of the brain stem regulate breathing? | Medulla Oblongata and the Pons | |
| Function of Cerebellum | intended vs. actual movements, regulates posture and movement, complex movements, coordinator | |
| What are the three parts of the Diencephalon? | Thalamus, Hypothalamus, Epithalamus | |
| Function of Thalamus | relays sensory info to cortex, help to plan and and control movements, touch, pain, pressure, temperature | |
| Function of Hypothalamus | controls and integrates ANS and pituatary gland, emotion and behavior, body temp, eating and drinking, sleep, ADH and oxytocin | |
| Function of Epithalamus | pineal gland which secretes melatonin (regulates sleep-wake cycle) | |
| What are the five main sections of the cerebrum? | sensory, motor, association, basal ganglia, limbic system | |
| Function of sensory area | percieve sensory info | |
| Function of Motor Areas | plan and initiate muscular movements | |
| Function of Association Areas | Memory, personality, intelligence | |
| Function of Basal Ganglia | coordinate gross movements and muscle tone | |
| Function of Limbic System | emotion, fear | |
| Function of Amygdala? | Fear | |
| What are the three parts of the Basal Ganglia? | Globus Pallidus, Body of Caudate Nucleus, Putamen | |
| Function of Putamen and Caudate? | recieve sensory and motor input from cortex | |
| Function of Globus Pallidus? | gives output, sends feedback signals to motor cortex via thalamus | |
| What ae the Five Integration (Motor) centers of the CNS? | Spinal Cord, Lower Brain Stem, Cerebellum, Thalamus, Cerebral Cortex | |
| Function of Spinal Cord | simple reflexes | |
| Function of Lower Brain Stem | more subconscious motor rxns such as posutural control | |
| Function of Cerebellum | subconscious control of movement such as those needed to coordinate multiple movements | |
| Function of Cerebral Cortex? | percieve sensory info, concious movements |
Quisition is a browser-based flashcard system that repeats old cards and introduces new ones at optimal time intervals. You can create your own card packs or use those developed by others.
