CSD 210 TEST QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
LATEST UPDATE
Swimming, chewing and swallowing are all examples of reflexive motor
behaviors. (T/F)
false
Touch and position information for the leg is transmitted by the:
Dorsal columns, especially fasciculus gracilis
One way in which the cerebellum contributes to sensorimotor control is to:
Produce coordinated movement
The thalamus is located in the center of the two hemispheres and this one
structure is shared for convergence of sensory information between the
hemispheres.(T/F)
false
This part of the limbic system regulates thirst, hunger, and temperature control:
hypothalamus
As a muscle spindle becomes more sensitive to stretch, what would you expect
from a deep tendon reflex (assuming the force of the "tap" on the tendon is the
same in all cases)?
more excitable (greater response)
The primary neurotransmitter that is released at a neuromuscular junction is
acetylcholine.(T/F)
true
During the endocochlear potential, depolarization occurs because of an outflow
of Ca++ and K+ from the hair cell.(T/F)
false
What is interaural intensity difference?
the shadow of one's own head presents an intensity difference between the right and
left ear, if sound is not presented head-on, and the sound arriving at the further ear is
perceived at a lower intensity.
Limbic structures are connected by an extensive network of afferent and efferent
fibers and influence virtually all cortical, brainstem, and visceral function for the
regulation of emotions and motivation.(T/F)
true
This structure serves to regulate learning and memory.
hippocampus
Which structure within the auditory pathway is located in the thalamus?
medial geniculate body
Hallmark signs of Huntington's Disease include (mark all that apply)
cognitive issues, excess movement (chorea), hypokinesis
A patient with a lesion to cranial nerve X would likely exhibit:
laryngeal deficits
Which anatomical fact below is correct?
