What do you call collection of nerve fibers in the brain longitudinal in form?

The collection of nerve fibers in the brain that are longitudinal in form is called a "fasciculus." Fasciculi are bundles of nerve fibers that travel together and share a common function or destination within the brain.


What does the spring ligament support?

The spring ligament supports the medial longitudinal arch of the foot, providing stability and helping to maintain proper foot alignment during weight-bearing activities. It connects the calcaneus to the navicular bone in the foot.


When neurons in wernicke's area send impulses to neurons in broca's area the white matter tracts utilized are?

The white matter tracts connecting Wernicke's area and Broca's area are the arcuate fasciculus and the superior longitudinal fasciculus. These tracts help to transfer information related to language processing between these two brain regions.


Is the medial longitudinal the highest arch in the foot?

Yes, the medial longitudinal arch is the highest arch in the foot. It runs along the inner side of the foot, formed by the calcaneus, talus, navicular, cuneiforms, and the first three metatarsals. This arch is crucial for weight distribution and provides shock absorption during walking and running.


What are long association fibers that can be found in the white matter of cerebrum?

They are four bundles of long fibres which connect the different lobes of the cerebral hemisphere together.These 4 bundles are = superior longitudinal + inferior longitudinal + cingulum + uncinate bundles

Which tract carries fine touch and vibration to the cerebral cortex?

The dorsal column-medial lemniscal. (The Fasciculus gracilis and the Fasciculus cuneatus). Responsible for: Discriminative (fine) touch, vibratory sense, position sense. <http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/patestas/chapters/10.pdf>


What is a fasciculus cuneatus?

The fasciculus cuneatus is a bundle of nerve fibers in the spinal cord that carries sensory information related to touch, pressure, and proprioception from the upper body and upper limbs to the brain. It is part of the dorsal column-medial lemniscus pathway in the central nervous system.


What deep grove divides the brain into two hemispheres?

The medial longitudinal fissure divides the brain into left and right hemispheres.
