Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Why are the worst deficits seen distally in people with severe lesions of the primary motor cortex? The most severe functional losses occur in the hands, feet, and facial muscles after injury to the primary motor cortex, because fine motor control is exclusively provided by the contralateral primary motor cortex.
