The first step is the production of dopamine in the substantia nigra (A). The dopamine then travels to the corpus striatum (B), where it is released (C) and finds receptors (D). This leads to the slowing down of impulses down spinal neurons (E), and ultimately results in coordinated unconscious muscle movement (F).
