Question
Chapter 14.3, Problem 7WDYL
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The following structures for relaying the motor input from the spinal cord to the skeletal muscles: anterior horn, effector (skeletal muscles), spinal nerves, and anterior root.
Introduction:
Motor (or afferent) nerve impulses designate those impulses that are carried by the motor neurons. These neurons constitute the motor cranial (brain) or spinal nerves. Again, certain nerves also act as both sensory and motor nerves.

Which of the following would result in no movement (i.e. no activation of the motor
cortex)?
Stimulation of D2 Medium Spiny Neurons
Stimulation of D1 Medium Spiny Neurons
Inhibition of the Globus Pallidus Interna
Inhibition of the Globus Pallidus Externa
Both A & D are correct
A friend who works in a research lab is conducting an experiment to study motor movement. First the animal undergoes spinal transection at T5. Then, the animal is trained to walk on a treadmill while supported. Finally, GABA antagonists are injected into the lumbar enlargement of the spinal cord. After treatment of the drug, what motor response would you expect?
Question 5 options:
A)
The animal no longer has proper functioning of back or front legs while on the treadmill
B)
The animal no longer has coordinated movement of the front legs while on the treadmill
C)
The animal no longer has coordinated movement of the back legs while on the treadmill
D)
The animal can walk normally on the treadmill (with support)
