medial longitudinal fasciculus
Biology; Neuroscience
Axon tract that carries excitatory projections from the abducens nucleus to the contralateral oculomotor nucleus; important in coordinating conjugate eye movements.
commissures
Biology; Neuroscience
Axon tracts that cross the midline of the brain. See also anterior commissure.
postganglionic axons
Biology; Neuroscience
Axons that link visceral motor neurons in autonomic ganglia to their targets.
climbing fibers
Biology; Neuroscience
Axons that originate in the inferior olive, ascend through the inferior cerebellar peduncle, and make terminal arborizations that invest the dendritic tree of Purkinje cells.
saccades
Biology; Neuroscience
Ballistic, conjugate eye movements that change the point of foveal fixation.
olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs)
Biology; Neuroscience
Bipolar neurons in olfactory epithelium that contain receptors for odorants.
