Across
- 3. form of dysarthria which includes difficulty with motor planning although muscles are functioning normally
- 6. the coordinated, controlled movement of muscles or other structures
- 7. part of ANS which arouses the body for action and fight-or-flight response
- 9. homeostatic system which regulates neural or hormonal release in controlled amounts
- 11. improper measuring of distance of motor acts; cerebellar disorder
- 16. made up of caudate nucleus, putamen, globus pallidus, substantia nigra, and subthalamic nucleus.
- 17. cerebellar lobe which controls and maintains balance and eye movements and receives input from vestibular system
- 18. symptom of brain damage resulting in excessive involuntary movements (e.g. Tourette's)
- 21. regulatory behaviors such as reproduction, eating, and drinking
- 24. behaviors neither required to meet basic survival needs nor controlled by homeostatic mechanisms
- 25. PREganglionic neurotransmitter of sympathetic NS; PRE-and POSTganglionic of parasympathetic NS
- 26. connects the pituitary gland to the hypothalamus via axons
- 28. function like neurotransmitters but are outside of the CNS in the bloodstream, flowing to target organs
Down
- 1. ability to make antagonistic movements in quick succession
- 2. abnormal muscle tone resulting in random, slow movement; may be painful
- 4. behavior motivated by an organism's survival; controlled by homeostatic mechanisms (e.g., body temp, salt level)
- 5. maintains homeostasis by acting on endocrine system and ANS
- 8. symptom of brain damage resulting in slowing of movements, loss of motor ability, rigidity (e.g. Parkinson's)
- 10. connects structures of brainstem with parts of limbic system, basal ganglia, and frontal cortex
- 12. includes 5 pathways of voluntary motor movement
- 13. connects the pituitary gland to the hypothalamus via blood vessels
- 14. Stress hormone; releases glucose in bloodstream, increases blood pressure, diabetes, hippocampus damage
- 15. part of ANS which prepares for rest and digestion; reverses alarm response
- 19. set of mental skills controlled by frontal lobe (e.g., planning, decision-making, emotional control)
- 20. abnormal, uncoordinated movements affecting walking, speaking, writing, swallowing; staggering gait
- 22. POSTganglionic neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system
- 23. collection of nerve cells in the PNS
- 27. ceaseless, involuntary, jerky movements; associated with Huntington's disease
