Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ventromedial descending motor tracts, such as the vestibulospinal tract and the reticulospinal tract, are responsible for controlling the muscles of the trunk. These tracts help to maintain balance and posture, as well as coordinate movements of the limbs and head with the movement of the body. While they may also contribute to control of the face, toes, fingers, and thumbs, the primary role of the ventromedial tracts is trunk control. Therefore, the best choice is C.
