The axons exit the SC at ______ at the respective spinal level. ventral root.
Pre-motor interneuron synapses on motor neurons in the ________. Motor pool.
Locate the relative areas of motor pool for muscles of different proximity. See slide 33
What type of nerves are the motor nerves to 1) muscles, 2) muscle spindles? 1) Alpha motor neurons 2) gamma motor neurons
________ motor pool is present throughout the SC while ______ motor pool only exists at plexi. Medial: throughout. Lateral: at plexi only.
Gamma motor neurons innervates the _________ to adjust the length of ________ to maintain alignment with muscle length. Innervates: intra-fusal muscle fibers Muscle spindles.
alpha-gamma co-activation is only activated by _________. UMN drive of LMN.
T/F: Reflex reaction activates gamma neurons. F.
Direct cortical control of movement has pyramid cells in lamina _______ of cerebral cortex going directly to ______ (below the neck) or _______ (facial muscles). Lamina V. SC or brainstem.
Indirect control has additional synapse in the ________. Brainstem.
corticomotor pathways to lower motorneurons are classified based on ________. Number of synapses. (monosynaptic path, disynaptic path, polysynaptic path.)
