Pregunta 7
Pregunta
The cerebellar grey matter which is deep to the white matter is referred to as the [blank_start]Deep Cerebellar Nuclei[blank_end]
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
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.
Pregunta 9
Pregunta

Respuesta
-
Glutamate
-
GABA
-
Glucose-1-Phosphate
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
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?)
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
The main functions of the basal ganglia are to facilitate purposeful movements whilst inhibiting unwanted movements.
Pregunta 12
Pregunta
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.
Pregunta 13
Pregunta
Identify the structures on the diagram below.
Respuesta
-
Putamen

Globus Pallidus
-
Caudate Nucleus
