Portion of the brainstem composed of myelinated nerve fibers that connects to the cerebellum?
pons
The brainstem stimulates breathing on the basis of?
This is an automatic nerve flex and run by the autonomic nervous system.
How does your brainstem help you breathe?
The brain stem is divided into three section known as: midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongatta. The medulla is referred to as the cardiac and respiratory centers of the body. It is in the medulla oblongatta that the basic control of the external respiration that occurs in the lungs. The medulla sends a signal via the phrenic nerve that control the involuntary portion of breathing. Breathing is a process that is unique in the body in that it is controlled both by voluntary and involuntary mechanisms.
What part of the system makes you breathe while you are asleep?
Your nervous system. Special nerve centers in the brain stem control breathing when you are at rest or asleep.
What cranial nerve control the eyes or visual functioning?
Optic nerve
What part of the brain contains nerve centers which help control eye movement and the size of the pupils?
Oculomotor Nerve
What cranial nerves are not associated with the brainstem?
The olfactory bulbs [I] and the optic nerve [II]
What Contains the nerve centers which help control eye movement and size of pupils?
the brain
When activated the breathing control centers increase the rate of nerve impulses to the via the?
Diaphragm
Impulses are transmitted from the inner ear to the brainstem by way of the?
cochlear nerve
How do somatic sensory nerve impulses get to the brainstem from the head itself?
Somatic sensory nerve impulses get to the brainstem from the head itself via the cranial nerves. Cranial nerves are also known as cerebral nerves.
What part of the brain contains nerve centers which help control eye movement?
the neuron that controls our eye movement and it ism important
Portion of the brainstem composed of myelinated nerve fibers that connects to the cerebellum?
pons
What does the brainstem function?
it fuctions by senting nerve mesages up and down the stem its self
Which nerve network in the brainstem plays an important role in controlling arousal?
reticular formation
What are the characteristics of nervous tissue?
Nerve tissue consists of nerve cells, nerve fibers, dendrites, and neuroglia. It is packed closely together and most are strongly branching. Its function are to regulate and control body processes.
The brainstem stimulates breathing on the basis of?
