Can someone explain the how a motor impulse (like getting a glass of water) travels through the motor cortex, basal ganglia, and cerebellum, until it reaches the effector organ? Motor cortex formulates a motor impulse to get a glass of water That motor impulse will be sent to the basal ganglia Basal ganglia assesses the motor impulse Once basal ganglia figures out what to do, it goes back to the motor cortex Motor cortex receives the motor impulse modified by basal ganglia Motor cortex concludes that the motor impulse (the getting of a glass of water) should continue Motor cortex sends the motor impulse to the descending tracts, particularly, the corticospinal tract Corticospinal tracts descends down the brain stem Along the way, the corticospinal tract sends the motor impulse to the cerebellum The cerebellum processes the motor impulse Cerebellum figures out what to do (proper proprioception) Cerebellum receives afferent information from the cerebral cortex Information will converge to the Purkinje Cells then it will project to the cerebellar nuclei Axons of neurons will pass directly out of cerebellum and end on the brain stem through peduncles Cerebellar output will be conducted to the descending pathway Is this correct? Where did I go wrong? Would greatly appreciate your explanation. thanks

Question

Can someone explain the how a motor impulse (like getting a glass of water) travels through the motor cortex, basal ganglia, and cerebellum, until it reaches the effector organ?

Motor cortex formulates a motor impulse to get a glass of water
That motor impulse will be sent to the basal ganglia
Basal ganglia assesses the motor impulse
Once basal ganglia figures out what to do, it goes back to the motor cortex
Motor cortex receives the motor impulse modified by basal ganglia
Motor cortex concludes that the motor impulse (the getting of a glass of water) should continue
Motor cortex sends the motor impulse to the descending tracts, particularly, the corticospinal tract
Corticospinal tracts descends down the brain stem
Along the way, the corticospinal tract sends the motor impulse to the cerebellum
The cerebellum processes the motor impulse
Cerebellum figures out what to do (proper proprioception)
Cerebellum receives afferent information from the cerebral cortex
Information will converge to the Purkinje Cells then it will project to the cerebellar nuclei
Axons of neurons will pass directly out of cerebellum and end on the brain stem through peduncles
Cerebellar output will be conducted to the descending pathway
