Your response
Lab partner's response
QUESTIONS:
1) Were differences in the patella tendon responses observed? Explain.
2) What is the medical significance of the Babinski response?
3) What type of nerve is stimulated in the ciliospinal reflex?
4) Can the salivary reflex be controlled? Explain.
5) What structures in the body contribute to an individual's static equilibrium?
PART "C":
SHEEP BRAIN OBSERVATION
Using the sheep half brain and working in pairs prepare to take the oral quiz on the structures
listed below. You may be asked to identify a structure being pointed to, point to a named
structure, or give the function of a structure being pointed to. Prepare by identifying all
structures listed below and fill in the function of each structure in the appropriate space. Sign
up to quiz on any five or more structures. You will be called when your turn occurs.
