What is the function of the spinocerebellar tracts?
the spinocerebellar tracts contain axons that do not cross over to the opposite side of the spinal cord. These tracts assist in the passage of proprioceptive information to the cerebellum.
Messages are carried from the eyes to the brain by?
The optic nerve and optic tracts.
Is our spinal cord made of bundles of neurons that carry impulses from all parts of the body to the brain and from the brain to all the parts of your body?
Yes, the spinal cord is made up of bundles of neurons called nerve tracts or tracts of white matter. These tracts carry sensory information from different parts of the body to the brain, as well as transmit motor signals from the brain to various parts of the body to control movement.
What is the white matter tracts between the optic nerves and optic tracts?
Optic Chiasm
What is the land area of Chittagong Hill Tracts?
The total land area of Chittagong Hill Tracts is 13,180 km² or 8265 mi².
What do ascending tracts contain?
They are sensory tracts.We have 4 tracts carrying conscious sensations = gracile + cuneate + lateral spinothalamic + anterior spinothalamicAnother 4 tracts carrying unconscious sensations = posterior spinocerebellar + anterior spinocerebellar + spino-olivary + spinotectal

Do descending fiber tracts of the spinal cord carry sensory or motor information?
The ascending tracts carry information to the brain.
What tracts of the spinal cord carry sensory information to the brain?
spinothalamic
What tracts the spinal cord carry sensory information to the brain?
spinothalamic
What spinal tracts might be damaged if uncoordinated movement is observed?
the spinocerebellar tract
What are the four Parts of the Sensory Pathway?
Sensory pathways function to provide us with information about our environment. The four parts of the sensory pathway are receptors, sensory neurons, sensory tracts, and sensory areas of the brain.
What carries sensory information to the spinal cord?
The major descending motor tract FROM the cerebrum is the corticospinal tract. The major ascending sensory tracts TO the cerebrum are the sensorimotor tract and the dorsal column lemniscal system.
What is the difference between ascending tracts and descending tracts of the spinal cord?
ascending carry sensory information toward the brain.descending convey motor command to the spinal cord.
What kinds of nerves are in the up ward tracts?
"sensory"
What kinds of nerves are in the upward tract and downward tract of the spinal cord?
The ascending tracts (upward) contain sensory nerves, that pass sensory information from the body to the brain. The descending tracts (downward) contain motor nerves that activate the muscles in the body according to the brain's "commands".
