Place the following steps in order for motor control.
1)Upper motor neurons stimulate lower motor neurons.
2)Sensory information is relayed back to the cerebellum so movement can be modified if needed.
3)Upper motor neurons in the premotor cortex select a motor program.
4)Lower motor neurons stimulate a skeletal muscle to contract.
5)The basal nuclei enable the thalamus to stimulate upper motor neurons of the primary cortex.
A)2,5,3,1,4
B)3,5,1,2,4
C)3,5,1,4,2
D)5,3,1,4,2

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct order for motor control is as follows: 
3)Upper motor neurons in the premotor cortex select a motor program.
5)The basal nuclei enable the thalamus to stimulate upper motor neurons of the primary cortex.
1)Upper motor neurons stimulate lower motor neurons.
4)Lower motor neurons stimulate a skeletal muscle to contract.
2)Sensory information is relayed back to the cerebellum so movement can be modified if needed. 
Choice C is the correct order because it follows this sequence.
