_____ are the cell type found in the cerebellum.

Expert Solution

The cerebellum cortex is a depply convoluted folds or folia spuuorted by branching central medulla of white matter.

Its cortex consists of 3 layers.

the muscular layer which contains stellate cells and basket cells.

the ganglionic layer or purkinje cell layer which is formed by single row of purkinje cells.

the last is the granular layer which is densely populated by the granulae cells with dark staining nuclei and very less cytoplasm.

1. GRANULAE CELLS- these are packed chromatic nuclei and these are horizontal fibers of molecular layer. these are excitatory in nature.

2. PURKINJE CELLS- large and flask shaped cells, only axons emerge from cerebellar cortex to enter into white matter. All the impulses converge here and GABA is released. Inhibitory in nature.

3. GOLGI CELLS- these are inhibitory neurons, thesea re found in the granular layer aswell. the golgi use GABA as their transmitter.

4. STELLATE CELLS- these function is to synapse with the purkinje cell cendrites. these are inhibitory in nature.

5. BASKET CELLS- These are inhibitory in nature, and these are in molecular layer, near the body of purkinje cell.

GOOD LUCK!!
