Chapter 14, Problem 22CP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The symptoms observed in an individual who has damage in a region of the basal nuclei in the brain.
Concept introduction:
The basal nuclei regulate the subconscious control of the skeletal muscle tonicity. They also regulate the movements and coordination of the learning patterns in the individuals. The rhythm and control of the movements of the proximal limbs and the trunk is provided by them. The damage to the region in the basal nuclei causes the lack of the coordination in the control of the movements of the hands and the legs in an individual.
