Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Proprioceptors in skeletal muscles and joints send information about voluntary movements to the cerebellum, which is responsible for coordinating and refining these movements. The basal nuclei and the primary cortex also play a role in voluntary movement, but they do not receive direct input from proprioceptors. The brainstem regulates automatic movements and reflexes, but it does not play a major role in voluntary movements. The corpus callosum is primarily involved in communication between the two hemispheres of the brain and does not play a direct role in voluntary movements.
