1What are the three lobes of the cerebellum called?
- AAnterior lobe
- BCaudal lobe
- CLateral lobe
- DVentral lobe
- EPosterior lobe
- FFlocculonodular lobe
- GFloccularus lobe
- HFlocculondus lobe
2The extension of dura mater that separates the cerebellum from the lower occipital lobe of the brain is called the [blank_start]tentorium cerebelli[blank_end]
- Atentorium cerebelli
3The cerebellum is connected to the brainstem via 3 white matter tracts called [blank_start]Peduncles[blank_end]
- APeduncles
4The area highlighted in blue is known as the Cerebellar ... ?

- AVermis
5The Arbor Vitae refers the the cerebellar grey matter.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
6From superficial to deep, name the three layers of the cerebellum
[blank_start]Molecular[blank_end] Layer
[blank_start]Purkinje Cell[blank_end] Layer
[blank_start]Granular Cell[blank_end] Layer- AMolecular
- BPurkinje Cell
- CGranular Cell
7The cerebellar grey matter which is deep to the white matter is referred to as the [blank_start]Deep Cerebellar Nuclei[blank_end]
- ADeep Cerebellar Nuclei
8The main function of Purkinje cells are to send [blank_start]Inhibitory[blank_end] signals to the deep cerebellar nuclei in order to regulate the efferent motor signals being projected by the cerebellum.
- AInhibitory
- BExcitatory
9Purkinje cells inhibit Deep Cerebellar Nuclei via the production of the neurotransmitter ...
- AGlutamate
- BGABA
- CGlucose-1-Phosphate
10After information has reached the Deep Cerebellar Nuclei, these areas of grey matter project efferent signals via axons which typically synapse in the [blank_start]Thalamus[blank_end] (which part of the brain?)
- AThalamus
11The main functions of the basal ganglia are to facilitate purposeful movements whilst inhibiting unwanted movements.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
12Within the Basal Ganglia, the Lenticular/Lentiform Nucleus is made up of the [blank_start]Putamen[blank_end] superficially and the [blank_start]Globus Pallidus[blank_end] deep.
- APutamen
- BGlobus Pallidus
13Identify the structures on the diagram below.

- APutamen
- BGlobus Pallidus
- CCaudate Nucleus
- DInternal Capsule
14As well as the caudate nucleus and the lentiform nucleus, the basal ganglia also consists of the subthalmic nucleus and the substantia nigra. Which of these areas is thought to be involved with Parkinson's Disease?
[blank_start]Substantia Nigra[blank_end]- ASubstantia Nigra
15The Cerebellum is a Contralateral brain. If there is a lesion in the left side, down the line this will affect right sided structures.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
16In which area of a nerve does saltatory conduction occur, allowing propagation of action potentials?
- AThe Schwann Cells
- BThe Axon
- CThe Myelin Sheath
- DThe Node of Ranvier
17Infarct to which of the following white matter bands is most likely to cause damage to the structures of the brainstem?
- AThe Corpus Callosum
- BThe Internal Capsule
- CThe Thalamus
18The Substantia Nigra is a series of [blank_start]black[blank_end] bands in the [blank_start]midbrain[blank_end] that plays an important role in reward and movement systems.
- Ablack
- Bwhite
- Cgrey
- Dpurple
- Emidbrain
- Fpons
- Gmedulla
- Hcerebral cortex
19An insult to the Lentiform Nucleus of the Basal Ganglia is most likely to cause which of the following clinical features?
- AHypokinesia
- BHemianopia
- CAphasia
- DDementia
