In this paper‚ I will be discussing the normal physiology of the basal ganglia‚ or basal nuclei‚ how the different structures within are involved with motor functions‚ and how dysfunctions within the basal ganglia lead to movement disorders. The basal ganglia are a group of interconnected subcortical structures composed primarily of the striatum‚ pallidum‚ substantia nigra‚ and the subthalamic nucleus. These structures span across the diencephalon‚ telencephalon‚ and the midbrain‚ and lie under

? Capital punishment is the gravest consequence for violating the criminal law which has been used for thousands of years and it dates back to Ancient Times. The first proof of capital punishment is from Hammurabi’s Code‚ where Hammurabi quoted: “An eye for an eye‚ a tooth for a tooth” (ca. 1700 B.C).

BASAL GANGLIA Recent advances in the knowledge of basal ganglia functional anatomy and physiology make it possible to hypothesize how specific neural mechanisms relate to manifestations of TS. Recent studies have shown a model of selection and suppression of competing behaviours by the basal ganglia circuits and on dopamine modulation of these circuits to provide the basis for basal ganglia dysfunction in TS. The basal ganglion consists of the striatum‚ subthalamic nucleus‚ globus pallidus and
