Which part of the brain primarily regulates muscle functioning and coordinates movement? Cerebrum Cerebellum Epithalamus Hypothalamus

Intro to Neuro Question: The location of the synapses of descending cortical input to the cerebellum (the relay station) is the: Group of answer choices cerebral cortex. cerebellar cortex. medulla. pons. superior colliculus   Is this correct? The location of the synapses of descending cortical input to the cerebellum, serving as a relay station, is the: pons. Cortical input to the cerebellum is relayed through the pons in the form of pontocerebellar fibers, which synapse in the pontine nuclei. From there, fibers cross over (decussate) and enter the cerebellum.

Neuroscience   1) Describe the role of brainstem nuclei in descending motor control   2) Describe the properties and organization of the primary motor cortex   Please provide pictures with your explanation.  This should help me prepare for an upcoming exam. I need to understand what is going and I'm a visual person!!

BRAIN LABELING P Label the diagram of the brain. A B N/ E M' L -K Word Bank: Arbor Vitae Pituitary gland Cerebellum Pons Corpus callosum Frontal lobe Sulcus of cerebrum Temporal lobe Thalamus Gyrus of the cerebellum Hypothalamus Lateral ventricle Transverse Fissure Medulla oblongata Midbrain Occipital lobe Parietal lobe

Narcolepsy is thought to occur from dysfunction of neurons located in the hypothalamus hippocampus thalamus amygdala

How does the nervous system contribute to everyday activities? Not just exercise

Which brain lobe is located at the back of the brain, and what is one major function of this area? How does it differ from the hippocampus?

Neuroscience: Basal Ganglia and Cerebellum 1) Describe the two additional pathways through the basal ganglia (hyper direct andindirect) 2) Describe the role of dopamine signaling in the basal ganglia   Please provide pictures with your explanation.  This should help me prepare for an upcoming exam. I need to understand what is going and I'm a visual person!!

A bit confused about this question I placed my answer below the question but not sure if the brain is synonymous or not with the peripheral nervous system due to the wording of the question. In the background section the authors wrote “Neurodegenerative disease are progressive conditions that occur through impairment in the function or structure of neurons in the peripheral nervous system or brain [1].’  Based on this quote, is the “or brain” statement synonymous with the peripheral nervous system or is the “or brain” statement in addition to the peripheral nervous system?  The nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord are part of the peripheral nervous system. The main function of the peripheral nervous system is to transmit signals from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body making the "or brain" statement synonymous.   How do you know that your answer to question 1 is correct?

A lesion or destruction of which of the following region would result in spastic paralysis? Internal capsule Caudate Medial lemniscus Substantia nigra Inferior peduncle   A lesion or destruction of which of the following region would result in Parkinson’s Disease? Internal capsule Caudate Medial lemniscus Substantia nigra Inferior peduncle   A lesion or destruction of which of the following region would result in Huntington’s Disease? Internal capsule Caudate Medial lemniscus Substantia nigra Inferior peduncle   A lesion or destruction of which of the following region would result in loss of touch, pressure, vibration, and conscious proprioception? Internal capsule Caudate Medial lemniscus Substantia nigra Inferior peduncle
