What else can I help you with?
Is the basal nuclei part of the major division of the brain?
yes
What is a basal ganglion?
A basal ganglion is any of a group of nuclei in the brain interconnected with the cerebral cortex, the thalamus and the brainstem.
What parts of the brain ultimately plan and coordinate complex motor activities?
cerebellum and basal nuclei
Where is the motor cortex in the brain?
Both the cerebellum and the basal nuclei (also called the basal ganglia) are the pre-command centers of the brain.
Unwanted muscle contractions are inhibited by what?
The Basal Nuclei or the Basal Ganglia
What leniform nucleus alon with the caudate nuclei are collectively?
The lentiform nucleus along with the caudate nuclei are collectively known as the basal ganglia. The basal ganglia is located deep inside the cerebral cortex and controls some motor functions.
What is the function of the basal nuclei?
The basal nuclei are involved in the planning and execution of movement, as well as in some aspects of cognition and emotion. They help regulate muscle tone, coordinate movements, and inhibit unwanted movements. Dysfunction of the basal nuclei can result in movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease.
Where is the basal ganglia located?
The basal ganglia is located deep within the brain, near the thalamus. It is nestled at the base of the cerebral cortex and is made up of several structures that are crucial for motor control, cognition, and emotion regulation.
What is the difference between nuclei and ganglia?
In the central nervous system, a collection of neuron cell bodies is called a nucleus.In the peripheral nervous system, a collection of neuron cell bodies is called a ganglion (plural: ganglia).The one exception to this rule that you may have encountered is the basal ganglia in the brain. Indeed, the basal ganglia technically should be called the basal nuclei, but they were named prior to the terms being defined and the name has stuck.
What do you call the cells with nuclei at the basal region of columnar epithelium?
fu
What are the basal ganglia?
The Basal ganglia are the group of Nuclei in the brains of vertebrates. These are located at the base of your fore brain. Basal Ganglia are also connected strongly with thalamas, the cerebral cortex, and other such areas.
The lentiform nucleus the caudate and other nuclei are collectively called the what?
The basal ganglia include the following masses of gray matter in the interior of each cerebral hemisphre: # Caudate nucleus # Lentiform nucleus # Amygdaloid nucleus A structure associated with the basal ganglia is the internal capsule.It is a large mass of white matter located between the caudate and lentiform nuclei and between the lentiform nucleus and thalamus. The caudate nucleus, internal capsule, and lentiform nucleus constitute the corpus striatum, meaning striped body.
