Connect the cerebellum to the pons

Connect cerebellum to medulla oblongata

Detailed explanation-1: -The middle cerebellar peduncle connects the transverse fibers of the pons with the cerebellum, which is entirely afferent to the cerebellum. The rostral cerebellar peduncle connects the cerebellum with the mesencephalon and contains mainly efferent processes passing out of the cerebellum.
Detailed explanation-2: -The pons lies between the medulla and the midbrain and is joined to the cerebellum by the middle cerebellar peduncle.
Detailed explanation-3: -The middle cerebellar peduncle is a massive fiber tract evident on the base of the pons, and is the main pathway for the mossy fibers of the cortico-ponto-cerebellar loops.
Detailed explanation-4: -The middle cerebellar peduncle connects the pons to the cerebellum. It only contains fibres from the pons to the cerebellum. The fibers arise from the pontine nucleus, and travel to the opposite hemisphere of the cerebellar cortex.
Detailed explanation-5: -Middle cerebellar peduncles connect the cerebellum to the pons and are composed entirely of centripetal fibers.
