Peduncle Anatomy

A peduncle is an elongated stalk of tissue. Zoology a stalklike structure in invertebrate animals usually serving as an attachment.

Botany the stalk of an inflorescence or a stalk bearing a solitary flower in a one flowered.

Peduncle anatomy. Botany the stalk of an inflorescence or a stalk bearing a solitary flower in a one flowered. Cerebellar peduncle anatomy and location the afferent and efferent nerve fibers of the cerebellum are grouped together on each side into three large bundles called cerebellar peduncles. They are the most anterior structure in the midbrain and contain the large ascending and descending tracts that run to and from the cerebrum.

Lesions in the cerebellar peduncle include various pathological conditions. Cerebellum bundlesthe superior middle and inferior pedunclesconnect the cerebellum with the midbrain. Many other nerve bundles also connect to the pons.

Peduncle anatomy not to be confused with pedicle anatomy. Cerebral peduncles help transport nerve impulses from the higher part of the brain cortex and the brain stem. The receptacle the peduncle is the stalk of a flower or an inflorescence.

The cerebral peduncles are connected to the pons which is a part of the frontal brain stem that looks like a swelling. In medicine a mass such as a cyst or polyp is said to be pedunculated if it is supported by a peduncle. Midbrain crossed fibres of the superior cerebellar peduncle the major output system of the cerebellum surround.

In human nervous system. Sessility is the state of not having a peduncle. A peduncle is a stem like connector.

Flower anatomy in angiosperm. Their differential diagnoses are occasionally difficult. Anatomy a stalklike bundle of nerve fibers connecting different parts of the brain.

Zoology a stalklike structure in invertebrate animals usually serving as an attachment. The wall and lateral roof of the fourth ventricle are formed by the inner surfaces of the cerebellar peduncles. A sessile mass or structure lacks a stalk.

The cerebral peduncles also known as the cerebral crus are the part of the midbrain that link the remainder of the brainstem to the thalami and thereby the cerebrum. When a flower is borne singly the internode between the receptacle and the bract the last leaf often modified and usually smaller than the other leaves is the peduncle. Anatomy a stalklike bundle of nerve fibers connecting different parts of the brain.
