a) Cerebrum serves to receive sensory inputs, to bring about integration before commanding voluntary motor responses, to coordinate the activities of another part of the brain, and to carry out higher thought processes for learning, memory, language and speech.
Reflexes for maintaining vital functions like blood pressure are located in
-
Hindbrain
-
Midbrain
-
Forebrain
-
Cerebrum
The hindbrain includes the cerebellum, the pons and the medulla oblongata, which function collectively to support vital bodily processes. The medulla is joined to the spinal cord and controls unconscious, essential body functions such as breathing, swallowing, blood circulation and muscle tone. Located above the medulla is the pons, which receives information from visual areas to control eye and body movements and also plays a role in controlling patterns of sleep and arousal. Information is relayed from the pons to the cerebellum to control the coordination of muscular movements and maintain equilibrium.
Part of the brain concerned with the muscular movement is
-
Cerebellum
-
Thalamus
-
Hippocampus
-
Temporal lobe of cerebrum
The cerebellum receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements. The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth, balanced muscular activity.

The cerebellum is the region of the hind brain. The cortex of cerebellum is made up of grey matter which is external to the white matter. The white matter projects outside and forms a branching pattern of a tree, which is called the Arbor Vitae or the tree of life. It is required for the coordination of various movements of the body. It also allows the cerebellum to communicate with the parts of the brain.

Coordination of muscular movements
The cerebellum controls the timing and pattern of the muscle activation during movement. The main function of the cerebellum receives information from the sensory system, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements. The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity.
Which of the following part of the brain controls the posture and balance of the body?
-
Cerebrum
-
Cerebellum
-
Medulla oblongata
-
All of the above
The cerebellum controls the posture and balance in the body because it receives the information from the inner ear, eyes, muscles etc which estimates the axis of the body and send signals to corresponding muscles for postural correction.
The part of human brain that is responsible for hand-eye coordination is
-
cerebellum
-
pons varolii
-
medulla oblongata
-
thalamus.
Which of the following statements is correct regarding cerebellum?
-
It is a part of hindbrain
-
It consists of two cerebellar hemisphere and a vermis
-
Arbor vitae is present in cerebellum
-
All of these
Cerebellar hemispheres are the largest regions of the cerebellum. The cerebellar hemispheres are two divisions of the cerebellum on either side of the vermis. They are functionally subdivided into lateral and medial portions. It is a part of the hindbrain. The arbor vitae is the cerebellar white matter, so called for its branched, tree-like appearance. In resembles like a fern and is present in both cerebellar hemispheres. It brings sensory and motor information to and from the cerebellum.
........................... coordinates the activity of picking up pencil for writing.
-
Cerebellum
-
Cerebrum
-
Medulla oblongata
-
None of the above
Coordination between various muscles needed for picking up the pencil, orienting it correctly etc are controlled by the cerebellum of the brain, a part of the hind brain.
Cerebellum of brain is concerned with
-
controlling rapid muscular activities
-
learning in early stages
-
maintaining posture, orientation and equilibrium of body
-
all of these.
Spinal cord originates from cerebellum.
-
True
-
False
The spinal cord is a long bundle of nervous tissue that originates from the medulla oblongata to the lumbar region of the vertebral column. It connects brain to peripheral nerves in the body. It acts as means of communication.
What would happen to the person if cerebellum of his brain is damaged?
-
He will lose his memory power
-
He will not be able to swallow food properly
-
He will be unable to coordinate and stand properly
-
He will lose his power of vision and hearing
The cerebellum is located down to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum. The cerebellum is the vital part of the brain that controls the motor movements of the body. Its functions include coordinated movement, balance, posture, speech, etc. Thus in this case, if the cerebellum is damaged the person won't be able to stand or walk properly. So, the correct answer is option C.
If a person cannot walk in a straight line or cannot balance a ride on bicycle, probably which part of his brain is not working
-
Cerebrum
-
Cranium
-
Cerebellum
-
Hypothalamus
The cerebellum is located down to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum. The cerebellum is the vital part of the brain that controls the motor movements of the body. Its functions include coordinated movement, balance, posture, speech, etc. Thus in this case of imbalance in riding a bicycle, or not walking is straight line can be caused by dizziness and improper functioning of the cerebellum. So, the correct answer is option C.
If cerebellum of man gets damaged, his movement becomes
-
Shaky and speech becomes defective
-
Unbalanced walk, uncontrolled and defective speech, intention tremor
-
Jerky and defective speech
-
Jerky and walked uncontrolled
The cerebellum is located down to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum. The cerebellum is the vital part of the brain that controls the motor movements of the body. Its functions include coordinated movement, balance, posture, speech, etc. Thus his movement and speech becomes unbalanced and uncontrolled. Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Depending on the plane of movement, the endolymph flowing within the semicircular canals stimulates the appropriate movement hair cells.
If a person cannot walk in a straight line or cannot balance a ride on bicycle, probably which part of his brain is not working properly?
-
Cerebrum
-
Cranium
-
Cerebellum
-
Hypothalamus
The cerebellum is a part of the brain. It controls the motor control. It receives information from the sensory systems, spinal cord and other parts of the brain and regulates the motor movements. It coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination and speech. So. if a person cannot walk in a straight line or cannot balance a ride on a bicycle, it means cerebellum is not working properly.

-
A portion of mid brain
The cerebellum is made up of two lateral lobe and a large vermis lobe which is divided into nine segments. It is associated with the fastigial nucleus. It is concerned with the regulation of the regulation of the muscle tone for posture and locomotion.
The part of brain without its ventricle is

Diencephalon
The ventricles are the hollow spaces in the brain that are lined with the choroid plexus and is filled with the cerebrospinal fluid. The lateral ventricles are located in the hemispheres of the telencephalon (cerebrum). The 3rd ventricle is located in the centre of the diencephalon. The 4th ventricle is located in the centre of the metencephalon (between pons and cerebellum). The cerebral aqueduct connects the 3rd and 4th ventricle and it is located in the centre of the mesencephalon (midbrain). The cerebellum does not have any ventricle.
