CEREBELLUM
cerebellum
- external features
- contains
- two cerebellar hemispheres
- united by vermis
- surface
- superior surface
- convex
- inferior surface
- shows a deep median notch vallecula
- each hemisphere is divided in to
- 3 lobes
- anterior lobe lies on anterior part of superior surface
- middle lobe
- situated on both its surfaces
- limited front by fissura prima
- limited by posterolateral fissure on inferior surface
- flocculonodular lobe is the smallest lobe
- present infront of posterolateral fissure
- divided by fissures
- horizontal fissure
- separates superior surface from inferior surface
- primary fissure
- separates anterior lobe from middle lobe
- posterolateral fissure
- separates middle lobe from flocculonodular lobe
- functional divisions
- lateral zone
- associative areas or associative cortex
- planning
- programming
- coordination
- dento-rubro-thalamo-cortical tract
- intermediate zone
- hands and feet
- rubrospinal tract
- medial zone / vermis
- controls muscles of
- trunk
- neck
- shoulder
- hip
- introduction
- little brain
- controls the same side of the brain
- LOCATION
- situated in posterior cranial fossa
- infratentorial structure
- morphological division
- archicerebellum
- appear in evolution in aquatic vertebrates
- flocculonodular node and lingula
