Q

Basal ganglia

A

posture and equilibrium. controls learned movements

17
Q

Cerebullum

A

sensory impulses

18
Q

Brain stem

A

activity through excitation and inhibition through neuro functions.

19
Q

Spinal cord

A

pathway through CNS and PNS

20
Q

Which cranial nerves are sensory

21
Q

Which are cranial nerves are motor?

A

3, 4, 6, 11, 12

22
Q

Which are motor and sensory?

A

5, 7, 9, 10

23
Q

Accessory nerve 11 is for?

A

for shoulder shrugging and head movement. the jaw muscle and trap.

24
Q

How many pairs of spinal nerves are there?

25
How many are in each coulmn?
``` 8 cervical 12 thoracic 5 lumbar 5 sacral 1 coccygeal ```
26
Dermatome
area of skin supplied by specific spinal nerve
27
Myotome
area of skin supplied by specific spinal nerve
28
Proprioceptors specific to muscles
muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs -found at tendon junction
29
Proprioceptors specific to joints and skin
meissners, ruffini's, pacinian and krause
30
How does GTO work?
Stretch threshold reached, impulse sent to CNS, muscle relaxes, facilitates activation
31
Active insufficiency
reached when muscle is shortened that can not generate or main tension
32
Passively insufficiency
reached when opposing muscle becomes stretched to pint where it cane lengthen
33
At what position generates the most tension?
At resting position or lengthened position
