In brain, cerebellum controls the postural muscles and balance the equilibrium. By operating on the cerebral cortex via the thalamocortical projection and on the brainstem, the cerebellum regulates the cognitive and automatic processes of posture-gait regulation.

Both real-time sensory feedback via the spinocerebellar tract to the cerebellum and feedforward information from the cerebral cortex via the cortico-ponto-cerebellar pathway may play significant roles in these processes.

The cerebellum's ability to govern posture is mostly dependent on sensory afferents. Along with the vestibular nuclei, the floccules and vermis of the cerebellum also receive signals from the labyrinth via the vestibular nerve. Spinocerebellar pathways convey peripheral sensory data and a copy of the spinal cord's output to the fastigial nuclei (FN).

Jessica has just moved from Orlando, Florida, to Denver, Colorado. What condition is she now experiencing that is stimulating th
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: Hypoxia

Explanation: hypoxia induces the production of erythropoietin, which is a hormome produced by the kidneys to help increase the productiom of red blood cells in the body. In Jessica's case, she might be experiencing this due to a change in ultitide whereby her body needs more oxygen than it originally gets (crllular hypoxis), therefore, her body signals for more red blood cell production. The erythropoietin will then be secreted and more red blood cells will be formed by the bone marrow through the hormonal action.
