Chapter 13, Problem 3ILQ
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/basalnuclei1) to learn about the basal nuclei (also known as the basal ganglia), which have two pathways that process information within the cerebrum. As shown in this video, the direct pathway is the shorter pathway through the system that results in increased activity in the cerebral cortex and increased motor activity. The direct pathway is described as resulting in “disinhibition” of the thalamus. What does disinhibition mean? What are the two neurons doing individually to cause this?

Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/basalnuclei2) to learn about the basal nuclei (also knownas the basal ganglia), which have two pathways that process information within the cerebrum. As shown in this video,the indirect pathway is the longer pathway through thesystem that results in decreased activity in the cerebralcortex, and therefore less motor activity. The indirectpathway has an extra couple of connections in it, includingdisinhibition of the subthalamic nucleus. What is the endresult on the thalamus, and therefore on movement initiatedby the cerebral cortex?
Listed below are the events that occur during basal ganglia functioning.
Disinhibition of thalamic nuclei that project to motor cortex
Inhibition of globus pallidus
Excitation of corpus striatum
Which of the following is the correct sequence of these events?

EXPLANATION ADDRESSING THE QUESTION ABOVE Cerebral spinal fluid is a fluid that cushions the central nervous system and provides buoyancy to and helps nourish the brain. It circulates around the surface of the brain, interior ventricles, and surface of the spinal cord and central canal of the spinal cord. CSF is created by the ependymal cells in the choroid plexus and ventricles of the brain. CSF is made up mostly of water and also includes ions, nutrients like vitamin c and protein, and can pick up waste as it circulates. CSF circulation starts in the lateral ventricle where the choroid plexus and lateral ventricle creates or secretes the CSF. The CSF then flows through the ventricular foramen into the third ventricle. At the third ventricle, the CSF then flows through the cerebral aqueduct into the fourth ventricle. Then, the CSF exits the fourth…arrow_forward
