Brain control of movement
8 important questions on Brain control of movement
What is the direct pathway of the basal ganglia? & function?
Funtion
- Discharge of movement related cells
- Enhance intiation of desired movements
- Go signal by boosting SMA
What is the indirect pathway of the basal ganglia? & Function?
Function::
- Antagonize motor functions of direct pathway
- Thalamus inhibition
- Supression of competing, inappropriate motor programs
How does M1 code for voluntary movement? (activity)
Direction of movement = Average
- So we can predict movements by population vectors
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What do we mean with the Malleable motor map?
- Reorganization is possible
What is coolio about the anatomy of the cerebellum?
A lot of Folia (folds) & Lobules (areas): A LOT of surface area
What does the lateral cerebellum control?
Besides fine motor control, what is the function of the cerebellum?
Motor loop:
- Get a lot of input --> What did i want to do --> What actually happened
What is cerebellum programming?
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
