Solutions For An Introduction to Brain and Behavior Chapter 11 Problem 2R1

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution 1

The entire sensorymotor system is organized as “hierarchy.” Major structures of the motor system include the cerebrum or forebrain, brain-stem and spinal cord. Cerebrum mediates the conscious functions of movement, while the brain stem and spinal cord mediate the autonomous functions.

The pre-frontal cortex plans the movements, the premotor cortex organizes the sequence of movements and the motor cortex executes the performance of movements.

Thus, the blanks can be filled with prefrontal; premotor; motor cortex.
