pain
medulla fx
hr
digestion
respiration
bp
coughing
vomiting
hypothalamus drugs
narcotics
limbic system drugs
drugs of abuse
basal ganglia drugs
spinal cord functions
sensory afferent neurons enter dorsal horn
motor neurons in ventral horn send efferent to skeletal muscle
pons fx
arousal
sleep
ne and serotonin cell bodies
cerebellum fx
sensory motor center
visual auditory somatosensory input
info about body pos, balance from visual system
smooth mvmt coordination, timing, pattern skm contractions
midbrain fx
dopamine cell bodies
periaqueductal gray (important for pain)
thalamus fx
nuclei cluster
sensory motor info to cerebral cortex
alert cortex to important sensory images
hypothalamus fx
internal environment
limbic system
homeostasis
reproductive
emotional
limbic system fx
cingulate
hippocampus
amygdala
nucleus accumbens
emotion, motivated behavior and learning
basal ganglia fx
mvmt
coggnition
habit formation
cerebral cortex fx
corpus callosum connects 2 hemispheres
planning
parietal lobe, occipital lobe, temporal lobe sensory and function
pons
antianx
cerebellum
