Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the term tectospinal tracts with the most closely related description given below:
Second order
Pain, temperature, crude touch, pressure
Voluntary control skeletal muscle
Subconscious control of distal limb musculature
Afferent
Information about “what,” “where,” and “when”
Unconscious proprioception
Crossover
Position change—noise related.
Introduction:
The tectospinal tract is also referred to as colliculospinal tract. These tracts direct reflexive posture movements and changes due to visual and auditory stimuli. This tract receives axons from the inferior and superior colliculi.
