Intro to Neuroscience Question: Damage to the cerebro-cerebellar pathway would be most likely to cause…. Group of answer choices Dysmetria Gait disturbances Huntington’s disease Parkinson’s disease   Is this reasoning correct?  The cerebro-cerebellar pathway involves connections between the cerebrum and the cerebellum. These connections play a role in the planning, initiation, and timing of movements, as well as motor learning. Given the functions associated with the cerebro-cerebellar pathway, damage to it would most likely lead to issues with the accuracy and timing of movements. Among the options provided: Dysmetria is the most likely outcome. Dysmetria refers to the inability to judge distance or range of a movement, leading to overshooting (hypermetria) or undershooting (hypometria) a target.

Intro to Neuroscience Question: Which of the following statements about the clinical case of H.M. is false?   Group of answer choices H.M. had profound anterograde amnesia H.M.’s non-declarative memory was intact. H.M. was unable to remember clinicians he met after the surgery, even though they worked with him for many years. It demonstrated that the hippocampus is critical for long-term consolidation of declarative memories. H.M.’s intellectual functions, as measured by intelligence tests, were significantly impaired following surgery   Explain why you chose the answer choice by providing a complete explanation. If you can give a couple of sentence or a paragraoh for your rationale, that would help me understand the answer choice.

What is the answer?

How would I trace D with the examples provided below?       1. General Motor Tract example  FORMAT:Motor Cortex of cerebrum -> Internal Capsule -> Mesencephalon -> Pon -> Medulla -> Anterior Horn (synapse) -> Anterior Root -> Exit appropriate ramus -> Appropriate plexus -> Appropriate Spinal Nerve (s) -> Muscle (synapse   2. General Sensation Tracts example  FORMAT:Specific receptorAppropriate spinal nerve (s) ->Appropriate plexus (if needed) -> Enters appropriate ramus -> Dorsal Root Ganglion -> Dorsal Root -> Dorsal Horn (Synapse) ->Thalamus (Synapse) -> Internal Capsule -> Appropriate Sensory Cortex (Cerebrum)       d) In order to perform bicep curls you must flex the anterior flexor muscles of your arm. Trace the motor pathwayfrom the brain to the appropriate muscles.
