Across
  1. 3. part of spinal cord that is mostly sensory
  2. 6. increased muscle tone
  3. 9. damage to this results in muscle atrophy/low muscle tone, decreased reflexes
  4. 10. cranial nerves
  5. 11. what reflex reemerged in adulthood with upper motor neuron damage?
  6. 12. nerve located entirely within the CNS
  7. 13. the more direct motor system
  8. 14. connections between brain and spine
  9. 15. damage to this results in increased reflexes, increased muscle tone
Down
  1. 1. the state of balanced muscle tension that makes normal posture, coordination, and movement possible
  2. 2. how many neurons in each pathway in the pyramidal system
  3. 4. how many descending pathways
  4. 5. part of spinal cord that is mostly motor
  5. 7. another name forcorticobulbar
  6. 8. A motor system that includes the basal ganglia and some closely related brainstem structures. Axons of this system pass into the spinal cord outside the pyramids of the medulla.
