Q

What produces CSF?

A

Choroid plexus

21
Q

State pathway CSF?

A

1) CSF produced and secreted by choroid plexus
2) CSF flow through intraventricular foramina (Munroe) into 3rd ventricle
3) CSF flows down cerebral aqueduct into 4th ventricle
4) CSF flows out apertures
5) CSF fills subarachnoid space
6) Arachnoid granulations reabsorb

22
Q
A
23
Q

Function intraventricular foramen? (munroe)

A

Permit CSF flow from lateral to 3rd ventricle

24
Q

Function cerebral aqueduct?

A

Permit CSF flow between 3rd and 4th ventricle

25
Q
A
26
Q

What sulcus?
What gyrus?

Gryus- ridges

27
Q

Where is primary motor cortex and primary somatosensory cortex located?

A

Primary motor cortex-precentral gyrus
Frontal lobe

Somatosensory- postcentral gyrus
Parietal lobe

28
Q

Function motor cortex?

A

Movement of body

29
Q

Function somatosensory cortex?

A

Sensations- touch, pressure, temp, pain

Q

What are 3 main types fibres link parts brains?
What link?

A

1) Association fibres- same hemisphere

39
Q

What fibres link things in same hemisphere?

A

Association fibres

40
Q

What fibres link things in diff hemispheres?

A

Commissural fibres

41
Q

What fibres link cortex with subcortical?

A

Projection fibres

42
Q

What will damage to corpus collosum cause?

A

Contralateral meaning issues

43
Q

What are the functional connections between the cerebellum and brainstem? What pathways do each of these connections carry?

A

Superior peduncle- midbrain- eff and aff
Middle- Pons- corticopontocerebellar
Inferior- medulla- vestibulocerebellar

44
