23
Q

ventral (anterior) horn

A

24
Q

function of basal ganglia

A

motor control

25
what nerves make up parasympathetics
cranial nerves 3, 7, 9, 10 | sacral nerves - bladder/bowel control
26
amygdala
temporal lobe | emotions
27
function of cerebellum
motor coordination | procedural memory
28
sympathetics control
fight or flight
29
the medulla controls
blood pressure | respiration
30
where are there enlargements of the white matter in the SC and what are they for
cervical - arms, hands | lumbar - legs, feet
31
the neural axis extends from the spinal cord to the cerebral cortices. as part of the axis, the midbrain in located between:
the pons and the diencephalon
32
name the types of spinal nerves from superior to inferior and how many pairs there are of each
``` 8 cervical 12 thoracic 5 lumbar 5 sacral 1 coccygeal ```
33
what is in the subarachnoid space
blood vessels | CSF
34
sympathetics are also called
thoracolumbar
35
functions of CSF
buoyancy protection - cushions against trauma remove waste transport nutrients
36
function of cerebral cortex
sensory motor integration cognition
37
function of thalamus
sensory relay
38
function of parietal lobe
somatosensory processing | visual processing
39
how many pairs of spinal nerves are there
31
40
sympathetics are made up of which nerves
thoracic | lumbar
41
hydrocephalus
buildup of fluid in ventricles
42
parasympathetics control
rest and digest functions
43
how many pairs of cranial nerves
12
44
components of the forebrain
diencephalon - thalamus, hypothalamus basal ganglia cerebral hemispheres cerebral cortex
45
function of temporal lobe
auditory processing learning/memory - hippocampus emotions - amygdala
46
path of CSF flow
``` lateral ventricles interventricular foramen of monro 3rd ventricle cerebral aqueduct 4th ventricle foramen of lushka/foramen of magendie subarachnoid space ```
47
"limbic lobe"
emotional control learning memory
48
name the cerebral hemispheres
``` frontal lobe parietal occipital temporal "limbic" ```
