FMA50801Nervous system
A major hindbrain structure located posterior to the brainstem that coordinates voluntary movement, posture, balance, and motor learning.
Coordinates the timing, precision, and smooth execution of voluntary movements, balance, and posture.
Posterior cranial fossa of the skull, dorsal to the pons and medulla oblongata.
Jump directly to connected anatomical structures to compare their locations, functions, and 3D relationships.
Sensory organs detect external stimuli (light, sound, balance) and transmit neural signals via cranial nerves to the brain.
Motor pathways in the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves direct skeletal muscle contraction and coordination.
The hypothalamus links the nervous system to the endocrine system by regulating hormone release from the pituitary gland.
