    Among other functions, it is important for balance, coordinating movement, and maintaining muscle tone. [5] The outer layer of the cerebellum, the cortex, is made up of three layers containing two classes of neurons. One of these classes has been identified as granule cells, which are produced by the rhombic lip. [6]
