Frage 6

Frage

Antworten
  • Molecular
  • Purkinje Cell
  • Granular Cell

Frage 7

Frage
The cerebellar grey matter which is deep to the white matter is referred to as the [blank_start]Deep Cerebellar Nuclei[blank_end]
Antworten
  • Deep Cerebellar Nuclei

Frage 8

Frage
The main function of Purkinje cells are to send [blank_start]Inhibitory[blank_end] signals to the deep cerebellar nuclei in order to regulate the efferent motor signals being projected by the cerebellum.
Antworten
  • Inhibitory

Antworten
  • Glutamate
  • GABA
  • Glucose-1-Phosphate

Frage 10

Frage
After information has reached the Deep Cerebellar Nuclei, these areas of grey matter project efferent signals via axons which typically synapse in the [blank_start]Thalamus[blank_end] (which part of the brain?)
Antworten
  • Thalamus

Frage 11

Frage
The main functions of the basal ganglia are to facilitate purposeful movements whilst inhibiting unwanted movements.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 12

Frage
Within the Basal Ganglia, the Lenticular/Lentiform Nucleus is made up of the [blank_start]Putamen[blank_end] superficially and the [blank_start]Globus Pallidus[blank_end] deep.
Antworten
  • Putamen
  • Globus Pallidus

Frage 13

Frage
Identify the structures on the diagram below.
Antworten
  • Putamen
  • Globus Pallidus
  • Caudate Nucleus
  • Internal Capsule

Frage 14

Frage
As well as the caudate nucleus and the lentiform nucleus, the basal ganglia also consists of the subthalmic nucleus and the substantia nigra. Which of these areas is thought to be involved with Parkinson's Disease? [blank_start]Substantia Nigra[blank_end]
Antworten
  • Substantia Nigra

Frage 15

Frage
The Cerebellum is a Contralateral brain. If there is a lesion in the left side, down the line this will affect right sided structures.
Antworten

Antworten
  • The Corpus Callosum
  • The Internal Capsule
  • The Thalamus

Frage 18

Frage
The Substantia Nigra is a series of [blank_start]black[blank_end] bands in the [blank_start]midbrain[blank_end] that plays an important role in reward and movement systems.
Antworten
  • black
  • white
  • grey
  • purple
  • midbrain
