Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The innermost part of the cerebellum containing nerve cells that communicate information from the cerebellum
A
Cerebellar Cortex
B
Cerebellar Nuclei
C
Cerebral Nuclei
D
Cerebral Cortex
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cerebellar cortex: A layer of folded tissue containing most of the cerebellum’s neurons. Cerebellar nuclei: The innermost part of the cerebellum containing nerve cells that communicate information from the cerebellum.

Detailed explanation-2: -It receives inputs from the cerebral cortex and pontine nuclei and sends outputs to the thalamus and red nucleus. This area also regulates coordination of muscle activation and is important in visually guided movements. Spinocerebellum – comprised of the vermis and intermediate zone of the cerebellar hemispheres.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cerebellum consists of outer layer of grey matter, the cerebellar cortex and inner layer of white matter. Masses of grey matter, intracerebellar nuclei lie embedded in the white matter. Cerebellar cortex is folded to form narrow leaf like bands called folia.

Detailed explanation-4: -The outputs from the cerebellum and basal ganglia to the cerebral cortex are relayed through distinct thalamic nuclei [13, 68]. Any interactions between cerebro-cerebellar and cerebro-basal ganglia loops were thought to occur primarily at the neocortical level.
