Located mainly in the peripheral nervous system. It funnels many neural signals here and provides
the final direct contact with the muscles. Example of lower motor neurons are cranial nerves and
spinal nerve of the peripheral nervous system. Examples of diseases
are bell palsy CN VII, spinal cord lesions, and poliomyelitis

In temporal lobe linked to language wernicke area
comprehension. When damaged
receptive aphasia, the person can hear
sound but doesn't understand.
in the frontal lobe mediates motor broca's area
speech, expressive aphasia resulting the
person cannot talk. The person
understands language and knows what
they want to say but can produce only
a garbled sound.
Help initiate and coordinate basal ganglia
movement and control autonomic-
associated movements of the body
(the arms swing altering with the legs
during walking)
major respiratory center with basic hypothalamus
vital functions like temperature,
appetite, sex drive, heart rate, and
blood pressure
structure is located under the cerebellum
occipital lobe that processes motor
coordination of voluntary movement,
equilibrium, and muscle tone
located within the CNS, the upper motor Upper motor neurons
neurons are corticospinal,
cortiocobulbar, and extrapyramidal tracts.
examples of diseases are stroke, cerebral
palsy, and multiple sclerosis.

true or false: peripheral nerves carry true
input to the CNS via through sensory
afferent fibers and deliver output from the
CNS the efferent fibers
Basic defense mechanism of the Reflexes
nervous system, they are involuntary,
operating
below the level of conscious control and
permitting a quick reaction to potentially
painful or damaging situations. Also helps
the body maintain balance and
appropriate muscle tone. Theres 3 types:
stretch/deep tendon reflex ex: knee jerk,
(2) superficial (cutaneous) ex: plantar
reflex and (3) visceral ex: pupillary
response to light accommodation.
