The medial pathway, which controls gross movements of the head, trunk, and limbs, consists of which tracts

Biology

Gemiola [76]3 years ago
3 0

The medial pathway, which controls gross movements of the head, trunk, and limbs, consists of tectospinal, reticulospinal and vestibulospinal tracts.

The tectospinal tract in humans, also known as colliculospinal tract, is a nerve tract that coordinates head and eye movements. This tract is a part of the extrapyrimidal system in which it particularly connects the midbrain tectim and cervical regions of the spinal cord.

The vestibulospinal tract is a neural tract found in the central nervous system. It is specifically also a component of the extrapyramidal system and is a classified component of the medial pathway. The vestibulospinal fibers of the tract relay information from the nuclei to the motor neurons which is the same with the other descending motor pathways.

Lastly, the reticulospinal tracts or the descending or anterior reticulospinal tracts are extrapyrimidal motor tracts that goes down from the reticular formation in two tracts to act on the motor neurons supplying the trunk and the flexors and extensors of the proximal limb.

Describe the procedure of water reaching the leaves from the roots of a plant
Lisa [10]
The water enters the xylem first by osmosis. Water moves from the soil to the root hair cell down a water potential gradient, and to the root cortex cell from a higher water potential to a lower water potential, this process will be repeated until water enters xylem. Because transpiration is occurring in the leaf, water is lost so there is a lower water potential inside the leaf. Osmosis moves water from the xylem to the leaf because the xylem has a higher water potential. Water moves from the xylem to the cells of the leaf. This pulls water up the xylem via cohesion which is the process of water molecules attracting each other and sticking together. Water does not fall down the xylem as here is adhesion which is the process of water molecules sticking to the inside of the xylem.
