Which of the following does NOT describe the highest hierarchical level of motor control?
A)It creates a "motor program" that uses afferent information to generate a pattern of neural activity required to carry out a given action.
B)It involves brain regions that include the sensorimotor and cortical association areas.
C)It sends signals along "command neurons" to parts of the brain that make up the middle level of the motor control hierarchy.
D)It involves brain regions that function in memory,emotions,and motivation.
E)It initiates consciously planned movements.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The highest hierarchical level of motor control is primarily concerned with strategy—the goals of a movement and the strategy to achieve them. It involves brain regions that function in planning and decision-making, such as the cortical association areas, and is responsible for initiating consciously planned movements. It does not create a "motor program" using afferent information; this description more accurately applies to lower levels of the motor control hierarchy that are involved in the execution and tactics of movement.
