A contralateral response is when a stimulus is sensed on one side of the spinal column, but the response and effectors of that stimulus occur on the opposite side of the spinal column. This is opposed to an ipsilateral response in which the stimulus and response are both on the same side of the spinal column
The patellar reflex is ipsilateral. If the stimulus is applied to left knee cap, the left knee responds. On the other hand, if the right knee were to respond to a left knee stimulus, the response would be considered contralateral.
The left clavicle is ipsilateral to the left scapula, and contralateral to the right.
The hand and the foot are examples of body parts that are ipsilateral, meaning they are on the same side of the body.
The ipsilateral side of the tongue refers to the side of the tongue that is on the same side as a specific structure or condition being discussed. For example, if there is a lesion on the right side of the tongue, the ipsilateral side would be the right side.
The opposite of ipsilateral is contralateral, which refers to structures or functions on opposite sides of the body or brain.

Ipsilateral means on the same side of the body, so the right ear and right eye are ipsilateral. For the central nervous system, an example would be that the right frontal lobe and the right occipital lobe are ipsilateral.

if you get pain in the ipsilateral of your inferior and superior limps at the same time, it's critical to diagnose the disease right away
The brain is the 'control center' of the body.
No, ipsilateral means on the same side. The spleen and gallbladder are on opposite sides of the body which makes them contralateral.
No, the right hand is contralateral to the right foot. Ipsilateral refers to structures on the same side of the body while contralateral refers to structures on the opposite side of the body.
No, it is contralateral.
