The social behavior circuit involves what structure

The emotion/motivation circuit involves what structure

Match the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic nonmotor circuits with their correct functions

What regulates muscle contraction, muscle force, multijoint movements, sequencing, and planning movements?

Oculomotor circuit determines how fast the eyes move and where they are directed.

What pathway/pathways are indirect?

The thalamus is always wanting to go, so the basal ganglia modulates motor function.

Which disease is associated with an underactive Go pathway and an overactive No-Go pathway?

Which of the following are symptoms of Parkinsons Disease?

Abnormal involuntary movements, muscle tone, and posture are major symptoms of what?

Match the words with their definitions

Match the structures with their function

Select the functions of the reticular formation.

What structure is responsible for controlling eye and head movements, coordinating swallowing, conveying pain and temperature from face, and regulating cardiovascular, respirator, and visceral activity?

Pons is responsible for all of the following: process motor information from cortex and forward to cerebellum, sensory input from face (CN V), contracting muscles in facial expression (CNVII), lateral movements of eye (CNIII)

Match the four major reticular nuclei with their function
