Somatosensory Pathway

QuestionAnswer
What occurs first in the anterolateral path Axons enter the spinal cord and synapse on cells in the dorsal horns
What occurs second in the anterolateral path Most of the spinal cord cells decussate before they ascend
What occurs third in the anterolateral path They ascend in the anteriorlateral portion of the spinal cord after they ascend
In this path, there are 3 different anterolateral tracts. What are they? 1. Spinothalamic tract 2. Spinoretucular tract 3. Spinotectal tract
Of the 3 different anterolateral tracts, where does the spinothalamic tract project to? Projects to the ventral posterior nucleus of the thalamus
Of the 3 different anterolateral tracts, where does the spinoretucular tract project to? Where do the reticular cells project to? -Projects to the retucular formation -Project to the parafoscicular (PFN) and intralaminar (ILN) nuclei of the thalamus
In the Spinothalamic and Spinoretucular tracts, the VPN, PFN, and ILN also get _______ info about the contralateral side via the __________ nerve -pain/temp -trigeminal
In the Spinothalamic and Spinoretucular tracts, the ________ cells project to ________ cortex -thalamic -somatosensory
Of the 3 different anterolateral tracts, where does the spinotectal tract project to? Where does the trigeminal nerve also project to? -Projects to the tectum (colliculi) -Projects to the tectum

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.
