Standing on one leg would be controlled by which of these parts of the nervous system?
A
cerebrum
B
cerebellum
C
brain stem
D
peripheral nerves
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Cerebellum This area of the brain is responsible for fine motor movement, balance, and the brain’s ability to determine limb position.

Detailed explanation-2: -Maintaining balance: The cerebellum has special sensors that detect shifts in balance and movement. It sends signals for the body to adjust and move. Coordinating movement: Most body movements require the coordination of multiple muscle groups. The cerebellum times muscle actions so that the body can move smoothly.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cerebellum regulates the cognitive and automatic processes of posture-gait control by acting on the cerebral cortex via the thalamocortical projection and on the brainstem, respectively.

Detailed explanation-4: -The somatic nervous system is a component of the peripheral nervous system associated with the voluntary control of the body movements via the use of skeletal muscles.
