Summary Introduction
To review:
The primary role of the cerebral nuclei in the function of the subconscious motor pathways.
Introduction:
The specific regions of the brain contain several centers. These centers control movements of the somatic motor at a subconscious level. This information or movement is carried by motor pathways known as subconscious motor pathways. Cerebral nuclei or basal nuclei modify reflexive and voluntary motor movements at a subconscious level.
