This document provides information on the ascending tracts of the spinal cord. It includes instructions to draw diagrams of the spinal cord showing the arrangement of ascending tracts, describe the three types of neurons in an ascending pathway, and draw a diagram of the ascending sensory pathway from sensory nerve ending to cerebral cortex. It also includes instructions to draw diagrams showing specific ascending pathways for pain and temperature, discriminative touch and vibration sense, light touch and pressure, and muscle and joint sense to the cerebellum. Finally, it presents multiple choice questions about the locations and courses of various ascending tracts and their nuclei of termination.

cord at the midcervical level showing the general arrangement of the ascending tracts . 2. What are the three typs of neurones found in an ascending pathway? Describe them breifly. 3. Draw a simple diagram of the ascending sensory pathway from the sensory nerve ending to the cerebral cortex. Name the three neurons involved. 4. Name the main types of ascending tracts and their functions.
