What are the functions of CEREBELLUM BRAINSTEM?
FUNCTIONS OF BRAIN STEM: >>The brain stem provides the main motor and sensory innervation to the face and neck via the cranial nerves. >>The brain stem also plays an important role in the regulation of cardiac and respiratory function. >>It also regulates the central nervous system, and is pivotal in maintaining consciousness and regulating the sleep cycle >>All information related from the body to the cerebrum and cerebellum and vice versa, must traverse the brain stem. >>The cranial nerves 3-12 emerge from the brain stem. >>The brain stem has integrative functions (it is involved in cardiovascular system control, respiratory control, pain sensitivity control, alertness, and consciousness). Thus, brain stem damage is a very serious and often life-threatening problem. FUNCTIONS OF CEREBELLUM: >>The cerebellum (Latin for little brain) is a region of the brain that plays an important role in the integration of sensory perception, coordination and motor control. >>Functionally, the climbi
