| 1. | The midbrain is broken up into the tectum and the tegmentum.
|
| 2. | Electrical stimulation experiments demonstrated that the tectum initiates orienting and snapping behaviors.
|
| 3. | The superior colliculus / optic tectum forms a major component of the midbrain.
|
| 4. | The tectum is responsible for auditory and visual reflexes.
|
| 5. | Retinal axons enter the anterior tectum and proceed posteriorly.
|
| 6. | When the tectum was removed, orienting behavior disappeared.
|
| 7. | In optic tectum has a layer the marginal layer that is cerebellum-like.
|
| 8. | The tectum is the chin and the cerebral peduncles are the face and ears.
|
| 9. | Ipc gives rise to tightly focused cholinergic projections both to Imc and the tectum.
|
| 10. | They presented owls with sound stimuli while recordings were made from the optic tectum.
