Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Proprioceptive information about joint and muscle positions is carried to the brain by the spinocerebellar tracts. The reticulospinal tract is involved in the control of posture and locomotion. The anterolateral system (spinothalamic tracts) is involved in the transmission of pain and temperature sensations. The vestibulospinal tract is involved in the control of balance and orientation.
