Cranial Nerve X
Vagus (BOTH)
26
Cranial Nerve XI
Spinal Accessory (M)
27
* Blinking reflex (cornea) ophthalmic division * Sensations or pain in the face, gums, tongue * Motor (MITE) 1. Masseter 2. Internal pterygoid 3. TEmporalis
V - Trigeminal
28
Innervates Superior Oblique
IV - Trochlear
29
Innervates for the taste of the anterior ⅔ of the tongue Muscles of facial expression Innervates orbicularis oculi for eyes closing
VII - Facial
30
For posterior ⅓ of the tongue Gag reflex Important for patients with dysphagia or choking For swallowing with cranial nerve X
IX - Glossopharyngeal
31
Balance and hearing
VIII - Vestibulocochlear
32
Phonation During ‘ah’ sound, when the uvula deviates to the other side, it could mean that the other side is weak
X - Vagus
33
Innervates upper traps and sternocleidomastoid
XI - Spinal Accessory
34
Movement of the tongue, weakness on the side of deviation.
XII - Hypoglossal
35
Sendory input, reflex circuits, somatic and autonomic motor output
Dorsal/Ventral Roots
36
Cardiovascular and respiratory control, auditory and vestibular input, brainstem reflexes
Cranial Nerves VII-XII
37
Respiratory/uriniray control, control of eye movemeny, facial sensation/motor control
Cranial Nerves V-VIII
38
Motor coordination, motor learning, equilibrium
Cranial Nerve VIII
39
Acoustic relay and mapping, control og the eye (including movement, lens and pupillary reflexes), pain modulation
Cranial Nerves III-IV
40
Sensory and motor relay to the cerebral cortex, regulation of coritcal activation, visual input
Cranial Nerve II
41
Autonomic and endocrine control, motivated behavior
Hypothalamus
42
Shape patterns of thalmocortical motor inhibition Inhibits the thalamus from continuously facilitating the cortex to avoid excessive movements (parkinson's = tremors) Thalamocortical reflex
Basal Ganglia
43
Sensory perception, cognition, learning and memory, motor planning and voluntary movement, language
Cranial Nereve I
44
Visual reflexes
Superior colliculus
45
Auditory reflexes
Inferior colliculus
46
Meninges
Dura mater Subdural space Arachnoid mater Subarachnoid space Pia mater
47
Outermost Meningi
Duramater
48
Innermost Meningi
Pia mater
49
Meningi space that contains the CSF
Subarachnoid space
50
Lies in the cranial cavity Continuous with the spinal cord through the foramen magnum Surrounded by the three meninges Surrounded by the CSF
Brain
51
Cerebral cortex Composed of multiple gyrus/folds and sulcus/fissures
Forebrain
52
Layer of neuronal cell bodies that covers the entire surface of the hemisphere
Cerebral cortex
53
states that the Anterior spinal roots transmit motor impulses and the Posterior roots sensory impulses
Bell-Magendie Law
54
Largest part – Consists of two cerebral hemisphere, which are connected by a mass of white matter called corpus callosum
Cerebrum
55
Clef that seperates the hemispheres
Longitudinal fissure
56
Surface layer of each hemisphere, is composed of gray matter
Cortex
57
named from the bones of cranium under which they lie
Lobes
58
central core of white matter which contains masses of gray matter
Basal ganglia
59
fan-shaped collection of nerve fibers
Corona radiata
60
tailed nucleus situated on the medial side of the internal capsule
Caudate nucleus
61
lens shaped nucleus of the lateral side of the internal capsule
Lentiform nucleus
