01:830:310 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Lateral Rectus Muscle, Abducens Nerve, Metencephalon
Document Summary
Located just above the spinal cordoned regarded as enlarged extension of the spinal cord. Provide both somatic and visceral sensory and motor innervation of the head and neck: for the cranial nerves, know their names, numbers, functions (i. e. in general what do they do), whether they are sensory, motor or both. What does it innervate: iv (trochlearis) for m. obliquus superior, vi (abducens) for m. rectus lateralis, iii (oculomotor) for other 4 extrinsic eye muscles, eyelid raiser, pupil constriction, lens accomodation. Origin of neural activity that serves to increase arousal and readiness of other parts of the braun. A structure located in the hindbrain with many deep regular folds. Flocculonodular lobe: vestibulocerebellum helps regulate balance and eye. Spinocerebellum: helps regulate body and limb movements movements. Cerebrocerebellum: helps in planning movements and evaluating sensory info for action and has some purely cognitive functions. Superior colliculus and inferior colliculus: swelling on each side of tectum.
