52 year old Gulf War veteran comes to your office experiencing a…

- - - - Brainstem synapse with muscles malfunction
- - - - patient is female
        
        have the patients genes mutated
        
        Patient exposed to toxins in the environment
        
        Patient is a veteran
        
        Does the patient have a history of smoking
- - - - Breathing tests as condition progresses
        
        Mechanical ventilation to help you breathe
        
        tracheostomy
- - - - directs the conscious or volitional motor functions of the body
        
        Upper motor neurons in the primary motor cortex send their axons to the brainstem and spinal cord to synapse on the lower motor neurons, moving muscles
  - - - Made of gray and white matter
    - - neuron cell bodies,dendrites,& unmeyelinated axons are gray matter in spinal cord
- - - - Occupational therapy
- - - - feeding tube administered as patients condition worsens
- - - - 2nd order neurons interneuron of the dorsal horn of the spinal cord
        
        3rd order neurons found in the thalamus that connects with the cerebral cortex
- - - - Lower motor neuron that synapses with the muscle
        
        Skeletal muscles respond to these neurons
  - - - precentral gyrus to motor homunculus causes voluntary movement
        
        movement comes directly from the brain ( cerebrum)
