Definition of basal ganglia in English English dictionary

plural form of basal ganglion

An interconnected group of three forebrain nuclei involved in motor control The three nuclei are the caudate nucleus, the putamen, and the globus pallidus

Groups of cells in the grey matter of each half of the brain which coordinate automatic movements It comprises various specialised groups of cells, or nuclei, such as the globus pallidus and the substantia nigra

A group of nerve cells located at the base of the brain It is composed of the putamen, caudate, globus pallidus, and substantia nigra These nerve cells participate in the regulation of motor performance (Singular form: basal ganglion )

Clusters of neurons that lie beneath the hemispheres of the cerebrum, they are associated with "initiation, smoothness, and precision of movement, and are responsible for the automatic movements we make without thinking "(Restak, 16) For more information, see these links

a collective name for a set of structures located around the thalamus, also known as the putamen and globus pallidus, that are part of the motor control mechanism of the brain

Groups of cerebral nuclei that play a role in the control and production of movement

A group of nuclei in the fore brain that regular body movements

a collection of clusters deep within the cerebrum which plays an important role in producing smooth continous muscular actions and starting and stopping movement

The large, complex set of brain structures involved in generating movements, in some cognitive functions, and in some emotional and motivational activities The basal ganglia and the cerebral cortex work together to refine movements, thoughts, and feelings

involved primarily in the control of motor activity, and deficits in this area are significant in movement disorders such as parkinsonianism and Huntington’s chorea Components of the basal ganglia include the caudate nucleus, putamen, globus pallidus, lentiform nucleus, substantia nigra and others

a network of brain structures that are involved in movement control

a group of deep gray matter nuclei within the brain which include the caudate and lentiform nuclei and putamen
