A 52 y/o female patient has been diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral…

- - - - Insula
  - - - Precentral gyrus
        
        Motor neurons contracts skeletal muscles
      - Cerebellum
        
        Assists precentral gyrus with skeletal muscle movements
        
        Enables smooth, coordinated movements
        
        Collects motor information about what should be happening
      - Basal nuclei
        
        Regulate muscle movement
        
        Gray matter - interneurons
        
        Prevent unwanted movements
    - - Synapses with muscle to make contraction happen
  - - - Processes visual information
      - Stores visual memories
    - - General sensory functions
    - - Motor functions
      - Concentration
      - Decision making
      - Planning
      - Personality
    - - Processes senses of hearing & smell
    - - Memory
      - Interpretation of taste
  - - - Controls adductor muscle group
      - Collects information from skin of medial thigh
    - - Controls deltoid muscle
      - Collects information from skin of the shoulder
    - - Controls flexor carpi ulnaris muscle
    - - Controls rectus femoris muscle
      - Collects information from skin to anterior thigh
    - - Controls tibialis anterior muscle
    - - Collects information from skin of lateral forearm
    - - Collects information from skin of posterior leg & foot
    - - Sense of vision
    - - Sense of smell
    - - Movement of eyeball
      - Regulates pupil size & lens shape
    - - Movement of eyeball
    - - Regulates contraction of tongue muscles
  - - - Spinal cord enlargement from which nerves going to the arm arise
    - - Cone-shaped end of spinal cord
    - - Group of spinal nerves that extend at end of spinal cord
    - - Spinal cord enlargement from which nerves going to the leg originate
    - - extension of pia mater that anchors spinal cord in place
    - - Gray matter that contains cell bodies of interneurons
    - - Middle open space that contains cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
    - - Bundle of motor neurons that travel to muscles & glands
    - - Myelinated axons on outer surface of spinal cord surrounding gray matter horns
    - - Gray matter that contains cell bodies of motor neurons traveling to skeletal muscles & glands
    - - Bundle of sensory neurons that enters posterior side of spinal cord
    - - Gray matter that contains autonomic motor neurons
    - - Enlargement along dorsal root where sensory neuron cell bodies are found
    - - Narrow groove on posterior side of spinal cord
    - - Slightly wider groove on anterior side of spinal cord
    - - Cardiac & breathing control centers
      - Reflex centers for vomiting, swallowing, coughing, & sneezing
    - - Relays information between medulla oblongata & higher brain regions
  - - - Lateral
      - Anterior
  - - - Located in brain or brainstem
      - Makes decision to contract
    - - Synapses with the muscle
  - - - Interneuron in dorsal horn of spinal cord
    - - Located in the thalamus that connects with cerebral cortex
    - - Brings information to the spinal cord
    - - Starts in spinal cord
      - Ends in thalamus
      - Lateral - away from midline/ to the side
      - Anterior - front of body
