The spinal cord has the motor neurons that control muscle. But who controls those motor neurons? Neurons in the motor cortex control them. There are also other groups of neurons that can command spinal motoneurons. For example, when it comes to controlling our balance and posture, cells from Ventricular Nucleus A/ descend onto spinal motoneurons to control them. They form a tract within the ventromedial pathway called A/ vestibulospinal track
