Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mirror neurons are active when an individual watches another person performing an action, as if the observer were performing the action themselves. In this scenario, Greg is watching his brother play the guitar, and it is likely that his mirror neurons are active as he is observing his brother's hand movements. The other options, vector, reciprocal, and pyramidal neurons, do not specifically relate to the phenomenon of observing and mimicking movements.
