Answer :-

Basal Ganglia :-

  • Deep within the cerebral hemisphere are three nuclei (Masses of gray matter) that are collectively termed as the "Basal Ganglia".

  • The basal ganglia are also known as "Basal Nuclei".

  • The basal ganglia is a collection of subcortical nuclei in the forebrain, at the basement of the cortex.

  • Two of the basal ganglia are side-by-side just lateral to the thalamus (Part of Dincephalon).

  • The third member of the basal ganglia is the "Caudate nucleus".

  • The Caudate nucleus has a large head, connected to a small tail by a long comma-shaped body.

  • The "Caudate nucleus" and the "Putamen" are together known as the "Corpus striatum".

  • A major function of the basal ganglia is to help in the regulation of initiation and termination of movements of organs.

  • The basal ganglia controls the subconscious contraction of Skeletal Muscles.

\huge\mathbb\red{HEY MATE}

The basal ganglia are a collection of nuclei found on both sides of the thalamus, outside and above the limbic system, but below the cingulate gyrus and within the temporal lobes.

The basal ganglia represent the largest component, and include the caudate, putamen and globus pallidus.

Basal ganglia are involved in more than motor control.

NOTE:-

Additionally, damage to the basal ganglia can result in abnormal involuntary movements, termed dyskinesias. These movements can take several forms that may give clues as to the cause of the abnormality.
