Neurophysiology — Flashcards

Effects of Various Lesions and Brainstem Transections:Complete transection mid-pons with vagi _____ will lead to: Regular continued breating

The area postrema (chemoreceptor trigger zone) contains _____ receptors which are activated by substance P

Lesions that involve the _____ cerebellum generally result in bi-lateral motor deficits affecting truncal and proximal musculature

Lesion of the _____ (midbrain) results in reduced levels of arousal and wakefulness (i.e. coma)

_____ cells inhibit deep nuclei of the cerebellum.

In _____ rigidity, if the anterior surface of cerebellum is removed the extensor rigidity is exaggerated

Associative learning is linked to _____ and cerebellum

In presynaptic facilitation, the _____ released at the axoaxonal ending increases the intraneuronal cAMP levels

The spinocerebellar tracts carry unconscious _____ input from the ipsi-lateral muscle spindles and GTOs to the cerebellum

Simultaneous lesion in both sympathetic and parasympathetic supply of the eye leads to _____-sized pupil that doesn t react to light.
