Neurophysiology — Flashcards

What is the function of Anterior thalamic nuclei?_____

In accomodation reflex pathway, the fibres from the parastriate cortex, relay to the _____ nucleus of both sides via the occipitomesencephalic tract and the pontine centres

Sympathetic neurons have _____ pre-ganglionic and long post-ganglionic neurons

Medial motor pathways:_____ reticular nuclei transmit excitatory signals to the axial muscles of the vertebral column and extensor muscles of limbs by way of the pontine reticulospinal tract, located in the anterior column of the cord.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation acts by inhibition at the _____synaptic level in the dorsal horn

Long-term _____ is classically seen in the cerebellum

Dopamine inhibits the _____ basal ganglia pathway through D2 receptors

One control center for horizontal gaze is located in the _____, which is responsible for ipsi-lateral gaze

The _____nergic neurons in pontine reticular formation, on stimulation, induce sleep.

_____ neurons within the striatum stimulate the indirect basal ganglia pathway
