CBIS UPDATED FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS SURE A+
✔✔Term: Basal Ganglia - ✔✔-Receives input from the cerebral cortex
-Alert for when something is not working the way it should and determines what
behaviors to execute
-Regulates activities of the motor and ore motor areas
-Handles physical movements by relaying information from the cerebral cortex to the
brain stem and cerebellum
✔✔Term: Cerebellum - ✔✔-Located in the lower back portion of the brain
-Coordinated and modulates all body movement
-Controls the direction, rate, force and steadiness of movements
-Injury causes problems with fine motor, direction of movement, balance and
proprioception.
✔✔True or False
The left hemisphere is involved in intuition - ✔✔False
a. left- linear, verbal/analytic, logical, right side of body, speaking, reading, writing
b. Right- holistic, visual spatial, intuitive, left side of body, music, art, shapes
✔✔Term: Primary motor cortex
Location, controls/ function, injury - ✔✔Location: curves over top of head
C/F: voluntary movement
Injury: causes weakness or paralysis on the opposite side of the body
✔✔Term: Pre-frontal cortex
Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: front of head
C/F: evaluates options, predicts outcomes and decides the best course of action,
influences ability to learn from consequences.
I: causes difficulty making decisions, organizing and prioritizing, initiating and inhibiting
actions, controlling emotions and interacting socially
✔✔Term: Temporal Lobe
Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: each side around the ear
C/F: memory, language, hearing
I: auditory. Processing, new learning, understanding, storing, and retrieving new
information.
✔✔Term: Brocca's Area
, Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: Left frontal-temporal
C/F: speech production
I: language expression is impaired. Speaks haltingly with few words.
✔✔Term: Wernicke's Area
Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: left frontal-temporal
C/F: speech comprehension
I: language comprehension is impaired. Speaks fluent moly but does not make sense
✔✔Term: Occipital Lobe
Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: back of head
C/F: visual processing, interpret visual information, recognition of size, color, light,
motion, dimensions, etc.
I: cortical blindness, agraphia, field cuts, movement agnosia, visual agnosia
✔✔Term: Parietal Lobe primary sensory cortex
Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: 'headband' across top of head
C/F: sensation and perception: responds to touch, temperature and pain, processes
sensory information.
I: difficult identifying sensation: location, type, temp, pain, movement
✔✔Term: Parietal Lobe somatosensory Cortex
Location, c/f, injury - ✔✔L: 'headband' across top of head
C/F: sensory input integration, spatial awareness and perception- awareness of body
parts in space.
I: agraphia, acalculia, anosognosia, aphasia, impaired attention, neglect, left-right
disorientation.
✔✔True or False?
The spinal cord receives messages from the brain through afferent nerve tracts. -
✔✔False, efferent
✔✔List symptoms in each category:
Central Cord Syndrome - ✔✔-cervical area
-incomplete injury
-often result of a fall
-present as weak/numb UE
-often B/B incontinence
