Cerebellum

The vertebral and the carotid artery nourish a collection of blood vessels called the circle of Willis. The carotid artery supplies blood to most of the cerebral hemispheres. It runs up the lateral sides of the neck, then splits into the anterior cerebral artery and the middle cerebral artery. The anterior cerebral artery supplies blood to the medial surface of the frontal and parietal lobes as well as the corpus callosum. The middle cerebral artery supplies the lateral portions of the…

slowed reaction time. This can be dangerous for those who are driving while high because they will not be able to react in time of an incident in the road such as an animal or sudden stops, causing accidents. The Cerebellum is another structure effected when using marijuana. The cerebellum controls motor coordination and balance, but with THC present it can result in impaired coordination. Impaired coordination can lead to falling and tripping over things they would normally be able to…

p 145). Following nearly a year of exponentially increasing pain, I was emergently admitted to the Neurological Intensive Care Unit (Neuro-ICU) at Barrow’s Neurological Institute, having been diagnosed with a tumor the size of a tangerine in my cerebellum. The benign hemangioblastoma was too large to be removed and…

contains oculomotor neurons and eye muscles while the balance system contains semicircular canals, otolith organs, vestibular nerves and nuclei. The proprioceptors include the spinal cord, muscles, and joints in the body while the brain contains the cerebellum and cerebral cortex. All these components work together to maintain the human sense of balance in all individuals. When there is disconnect in any of these systems the patient can…

howl like dogs. Both animals mark their territory by urination and are among the predator family. The brains of the domestic dog and the red fox are similar size. The brains have small prefrontal cortexes, but larger than ones of other animals. The cerebellum for both the fox and dog are about the same size and fairly large for an animal. The contrast of the red fox to the domestic dog is features they have that are more similar to a cat. Red foxes have pointed ears and almond shaped eyes.…

The nervous system makes it possible for animals to know and react to the environment around them. A change or event that evokes a specific functional reaction in an organ or tissue is a stimulus. There can either be an internal or an external stimulus. Internal stimulus being something like hunger or pain, while external is more along the lines of a sound or an odor. The nervous system interprets stimuli and orders other organ systems to respond. The nervous system does so through using sensory…

findings in his article Thinking About Consciousness. The conscious cannot be observed directly, only through what people explain or say or through activities. We have no access to the unconscious process that is constantly going on in our brain. The cerebellum is a giant clump of neurons, the unconscious pathway in our brain for visual informative flaws used for spatial framing and visually guided reaching of objects. Even in the “waking brain” unconscious practices are active; for example, on…

I still remember the fresh and clear day when Riley first came into our family. He was sprinting around the border of his new backyard and dashed into each room of his new home as he hunted for treats and toys to play with. But I also remember his last day before he passed away. He finished his final moments by walking around the border of his backyard, reflecting upon the joys and obstacles he faced through his life, and made his way through the house to each room, looking back upon the…

I do agree that understanding the body system is the foundation of understand other health conditions and diseases. If we have some knowledge about our body systems, then we will be able to take care of ourselves a little bit better. In the society that we lived today, we tend to overworked ourselves and have stresses in our lives that we end up getting sick and still go to work or school instead of resting our body. Our body is amazing on how to recover itself if we will treat our body better.…
