Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The basal nuclei, also known as the basal ganglia, are involved in modulating voluntary and reflexive motor patterns. They operate at a subconscious level to adjust movements, such as smoothing out motor sequences and helping to initiate movements. Dysfunction of the basal nuclei can lead to movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease.
