Frontal Lobe
Primary Motor Complex Prefrontal Cortex
Parietal Lobe
Primary Sensory Cortex Somatic Sensory Area
diencephalon
contains epithalamus, thalmus, hypothalamus conscious and unconcious sensory info and motor commands.
Arachnoid
contains lymphatic fluid and reduces friction between opposing surfaces
olfactory
receive info about hearing and smell
Which of the following parts of the brain is not matched correctly with its function?
hypothalamus: regulating body temperature cerebellum: maintaining posture medulla oblongata: contains cardiovascular center **cerebrum: adjusting blood pressure
epidural space
lies between the dura matter of the spinal cord and the walls of the vertebral canal.
medulla oblongata
connects the brain with spinal cord
Which of the following structures is the most superficial
dura matter
3 meningeal layers
dura matter arachnoid pia matter
The flexor reflex
is a withdrawal reflex. prevents a muscle from overstretching. prevents a muscle from generating damaging tension.
pons
links the cerebellum with the midbrain,dienphalon, cerebrum, and spinal cord
pia matter
separates arachnoid from the innermost meningeal layer
subdural space
separates the inner surface of the dura matter from the second menigal layer arachnoid
cerebellum
adjusts postual muscles for the body fine tuning movements
dura matter
tough outter most covering on the CNS
. All EXCEPT which of the following are shown in a cross section through a region of the spinal cord?
white matter surrounded by gray matter
reflex arc
1- arrival of the stimulus and activation of the receptor 2-the activation of sensory neuron 3-info processing by interneuron 4-activation of motor neuron 5 response perihpial effector
meninges
Dura Subdurale Space Arachnoid Subacahnoid space Pia Matter
Which cranial nerve is responsible for the motor innervation of pharyngeal muscles and parotid salivary glands?
IX
The brain region that automatically regulates heart rate and blood pressure is called
MEDULLA OBLONGOTA
Which cranial nerve is responsible for the sensory innervation of the anterior two-thirds of the tongue
VII
Which spinal cord structure(s) contains the axons of CNS motor neurons that control muscles and glands?
Ventral roots
Occipital Lobe
Visual association area Visual Cortex
somatic motor association area-premotor cortex
monitors activity in the primary senesory cortex. allows you to recognize a mosquito landing on your arm.
