Role of nerve tissue
|
-gray matter
-are subcortical nuclei of the brain (telencephalon) -important in iniation of voluntary movements and control of posture adjustments with these movements -corpus striatum -subthalamic nucleus -substantia nigra |
|
Afferent pathways of cerebellum
Input |
-arcuate nucleus (infindibular pronucleus) release/initiate .... related to hypophys.
portal veins> control the hormones of adenohypophys -ventromedial nucleus satiety center |

|
Structure-CNS
PNS Functionally-SNS (motor/sensory) ANS (symph/parasymph) |
Auditory pathway (lat.lemniscus) sends infor to medial geniculate body via brachiumm of inf. collicullis and from medial geniculate body to thalamus
|
|
Lobes
|
Olive> inferior olivary nucleus
-belongs to the extrapyramidal motor system, is a cerebellar relay nucleus -receives info from spinal cord (spinoolivary tract) -from red nucleus via rubro olivary tract -send olivocerebellar fibres to cerebellum via inf. cerebellar peduncle |
