Coordination and timing of movements and balance are functions of which of the following brain structures?  a- basal ganglia  b- motor cortex  c- midbrain motor centers d- cerebellum

Neurones of the lateral corticospinal tract: Select one: a. travel through the dorsal part (white matter) of the spinal cord b. are responsible for receiving sensory information and sending it to the brain travel down the lateral horn (grey matter) d. are capable of relaying afferent and efferent information decussate in the brainstem C. e.

Describe the functional problems that would be experienced by a person in which these fiber tracts have been cut: (a) lateral spinothalamic, (b) ventral and dorsal spinocerebellar, (c) tectospinal.

The concept of “labeled lines” states that each nerve input to the brain reports only a particular type of information, such as auditory versus visual information. Does this happen because the nature of the nerve fibers conveying the information is unique or because the nature of the brain location where the signals are received is unique? How do you know this?
