What is the study of the interrelationships of all the structures within a specific body region? Describe the anatomy of the spinal cord and relate the anatomy to the movement of nerve impulses to and from the
All discussion of the human body is in reference to the anatomical position. What are the two types? Which areas of the body have the most representation of the pre-central gyrus (Remember the homunculus)? A) Muscles of the face and hand B) Muscles of the leg C) Muscles of the trunk...

motor cortex, of both hemispheres, there is a representation of the contralateral half of the body. That is, in each hemisphere, there is a representation of the opposite side of the body.This is known as the motor homunculus and it is inverted, therefore the head is represented at the ...
The result is a narrower or flattened projection of the homunculus on the MSotA while the practitioner can never lose the overall understanding of the area explored and, above all, avoids two distinct and discordant results when examining the lateral surface and the MSotA. This simple and quick...
This is a flexible, interrupted video case that uses phantom limb pain as a platform to investigate brain anatomy with a focus on somatosensory cortical mapping and the homunculus. The case begins with a video of neurologist Dr. V.S. Ramachandran interviewing two amputees who experience phantom ...
