separation of the cerebellum
|
Transverse Fissure: (Tentorium Cerebelli – cranial meninges in TF)
|
|
the central constricted area of the cerebellum that separates the two cerebrellar hemispheres
|
Vermis
|
|
What inserts into the Vermis?
|
Falx Cerebelli
|
|
controls large subconscious skeletal movement
|
Anterior and Posterior Lobes
|
|
equilibrium, posture
-as posture muscles fatigue then the cerebellum will shut off that set and fire another set of posture muscles |
Flocculonodular
|
|
Inferior cerebellar peduncles=
Middle cerebellar peduncles= Superior cerebellar peduncles= |
Inferior cerebellar peduncles= Pons
Middle cerebellar peduncles= Pons Superior cerebellar peduncles= Midbrain |
|
What are the roles in learning/performing motor activities of the cerebellum?
|
1. Inhibition of non-cerebellar areas
2. Monitors intention 3. Monitors actual movement 4. Sends corrective signals to UMNs in cortex and brainstem motor centers 5. turn-on/turn-off: point where forward motion of one set of segments is stopped and other segments begins cycle (ex. Walking vs. running) |
|
Low level activities of the cerebellum are controlled by what?
|
Reflex Arches
|
|
Complex activities of the cerebellum are controlled by what?
|
FAP: fixed action patterns
(always can be identified—can tell if a person is running or walking) |
|
initial level of control, refers to the spinal cord segments; central (CNS) pattern (FAP) generators (causes it to happen)—we could make you walk without your voluntary input
|
Segmental - CPGs
|
|
command neurons; you walk when you choose to, the decision comes from the motor cortex, you set a command from these motor neurons done to the CPGs to produce walking pattern; instructs the CPGs to start firing, they fire until you decide to stop
|
Projection - command neurons
|
|
cerebellum is planning what you need to do—it sets the plan, sends up to motor cortex; making the plan; highest level of motor control (adjusting of previous learning or the ultimate plan)
|
Program/instruction: Cerebellum and basal ganglia
|
