The fasciculus gracilis and fasciculus cuneatus are components of the posterior columns in the spinal cord. The posterior columns are responsible for transmitting sensory information related to fine touch, vibration, and proprioception. The corticospinal tracts are involved in motor function. The spinothalamic tracts carry pain, temperature, and crude touch sensations. The spinocerebellar tracts are related to unconscious proprioception for coordination.
