Neuroscience 3

4. This cranial nerve arises in the nasal mucosa and conveys smell to the CNS
7. This tract mediates rapid, skilled, voluntary movements of the skeletal muscles
9. Cranial nerves 3 through 12 have a connection point in what structure
11. The tract that carries information about pain, temperature, and gross touch to the brainstem is the _______ fasciculus
13. Contains substantia nigra
15. These neurons are needed for skeletal movements
16. Provides the cortex with information on range and direction of limb movements
17. accessory This nerve activates both the trapezius and the sternocleidomastoid muscles
19. Comprised of the superior colliculi and the inferior colliculi
20. This nerve has two divisions, brings information on hearing, and conveys equilibrium and position sense
22. Sensory ability to recognize the outline of letters, words or symbols written on the surface of the skin
23. The area below the 1st lumbar vertebrae used for extracting CSF and for administering medication
24. Delivers images from retina to the CNS
26. These neurons come from motor cortex to first synapse point
27. Receives massive axonal input from cerebrum that give rise to the rubrospinal tracts that cross the midline at the midbrain tegmentum
28. Failure in judgement of target distance or range
30. Cranial nerve that receives sensory information on taste and from the anterior 2/3 of the tongue

1. This nerve is examined by asking the patient to stick out their tongue
2. The tract that carries information about fine touch, pressure, and proprioception to the brainstem is the _______ fasciculus
3. The spinal cord is a major element in the regulation of what type of functions
5. formation Facilitates the sleep-wake cycles, state of consciousness, and respiratory rhythm
6. This tract contains about 70% of motor fibers and controls the facial and associated muscles through activation of cranial nerve nuclei in the brainstem
8. Composed of axons arising from the spinal dorsal root ganglia in the sacral, lumbar and lower six thoracic levels
10. Cranial nerve that brings sensation from the face, nose, mouth, forehead, and teeth
12. This tract originates from cell bodies of the red nucleus
14. There are twelve pairs of this type of nerves
18. Assessing a patient’s gag reflex is one way to assess this nerve
21. Most common issue with this nerve is dysphagia due to loss of muscle tone in pharynx
25. Coordinates muscle groups for complex muscular activities and works in conjunction with the vestibular system to coordinate head movements
29. Cerebellar dysfunction that causes lack of order and coordination in muscle activities
