Flashcards for the different nerves for A&P with Review 1

QuestionAnswer
Gracile Fasciculus Ascending. Column-Posterior. Decussation-In medulla. Functions-Sensations of limb and trunk position and movement, deep touch, visceral pain, and vibration, below level T6
Cuneate Fasciculus Ascending. Column-Posterior. Decussation-In medulla. Functions-Same as Gracile Fasciculus, from level T6 up.
Spinopthalmic Ascending. Column-Lateral and Anterior Decussation- In spinal cord. Functions-Sensations of light touch, tickle, itch, temperature, pain and pressure.
Spinoreticular Ascending. Column-Lateral and anterior. Decussation- In spinal cord (some fibers). Functions-Sensation of pain from tissue injury.
Posterior Spinocerebellar Ascending. Column-Lateral. Decussation-none. Function-Feedback from muscles (proprioception).
Anterior Spinocerebellar Ascending. Column-Lateral. Decussation-In spinal cord. Function-Same as Posterio Spinalcerebellar.
Lateral Corticospinal Descending. Column-Lateral. Decussation-In medulla. Functions-Fine control of limbs.
Anterior Corticopsinal Descending. Column-Anterior. Decussation-In spinal cord. Functions-Fine control of limbs.
Tectospinal Descending. Column-Anterior. Decussation-In midbrain. Functions-Reflexive head turning in response to visual and auditory stimuli.
Lateral Reticulospinal Descending. Column-Lateral. Decussation-none. Functions-Balance and posture; regulation of awareness of pain.
Medial Reticulospinal Descending. Column-Anterior. Decussation-none. Functions-Same as Lateral Reticulospinal.
Lateral Vestibulospinal Descending. Column-Anterior. Decussation-none. Functions-balance and posture.
Medial Vestibulospinal Descending. Column-Anterior. Decussation-In medullaz(some fibers). Functions-Control of head position.
Sympathetic Division Thoracolumbar. Paravertebral ganglia adjacent to spinal column and prevertebral ganglia anterior to it. Short preganglionic. Long postganglionic. Extensive neural divergence. System often has widespread and general effects.
Parasympathetic Division Craniosacral. Terminal ganglia near or within target organs. Long preganglionic. Short postganglionic. Minimal neural divergence. System has more specific and local effects.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
