Detailed explanation-1: -The motor cortex controls motor behaviors by generating movement-specific signals and transmitting them through spinal cord circuits and motoneurons to the muscles. Precise and well-coordinated muscle activation patterns are necessary for accurate movement execution.
Detailed explanation-2: -Motor control is the physiological process whereby motor development occurs, and motor learning allows motor development to occur systematically, resulting in a permanent change in motor behavior due to experience.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is motor control? Motor control is a complex process involving the coordinated contraction of muscles due to the transmission of impulses sent from the motor cortex to it’s motor units. It is “the process of initiating, directing, and grading purposeful voluntary movement” (physiopedia)
