decussation = cross over and occurs mainly in the medulla oblongata
Why does decussation takes place in brain?
There is considerable variation in the extent to which decussation takes place in the medulla oblongata; about two-thirds or three-fourths of the fibers usually decussate in the medulla oblongata and the remainder in the medulla spinalis.
Where does decussation take place?
Decussation typically takes place in the brainstem and spinal cord, where nerve fibers cross over from one side of the central nervous system to the other. This crossing is important for coordinating movements and sensory information between the brain and body.

What is the definition of the four lemnisci that can be found in the pons?
They are four bands of ascending sensory fibres in the brain stem. Each lemniscus starts from a decussation below and ends in the thalamus above.
Decussation of most motor fibers occurs here?
Ans: Frontal LobeExplanation: " The fibers that carry information from the motor area of the frontal lobe of the brain are crossed fibbers. In other words, the fibers leave the motor area of the left frontal lobe, cross over and innervate the right side of the body. The fibers from the right frontal lobe also cross over and innervate the left side of the body. The crossing over of fibers is called DECUSSATION." - from "The Human Body in Health and Illness - Barbara Herlihy p175"
