Question
question 5 of 10 which spinal tract is located on the posterior funiculi and conduct sensory impulses associated with the senses of touch, pressure, and body movement from skin, muscles, tendons, and joints to the brain? spinocerebellar tract rubrospinal tract fasciculus cuneatus spinothalamic tract
The Fasciculus cuneatus (part of the dorsal column - medial lemniscus pathway) is located in the posterior funiculi of the spinal cord. It conducts sensory impulses related to fine touch, pressure, vibration, and proprioception from the upper body (skin, muscles, tendons, joints) to the brain. The Spinocerebellar tract is mainly for unconscious proprioception to the cerebellum. The Rubrospinal tract is a motor tract. The Spinothalamic tract is in the anterolateral funiculi and deals with pain, temperature, and crude touch.
