Electrophysiological cell-recording studies have indicated that the _______ may be especially important in the control of intern
ally guided motor sequences, whereas the _______ may be especially important in the control of externally guided motor sequences. A. supplementary motor cortex; premotor cortex B. premotor cortex; supplementary motor cortex C. cerebellum; basal ganglia D. basal ganglia; cerebellum
The supplementary motor cortex, also known as the supplementary motor area (SMA), is an area of the cerebral cortex located anterior to the premotor cortex. This area (SMA) is involved in the execution of complex and rapid sequential movements (e.g., typing). Moreover, the premotor cortex is an area of the motor cortex located between the primary motor cortex and the prefrontal cortex. This area (premotor cortex) is activated during motor tasks including, among others, spatial and sensory guidance of movement.
In an experiment, there are usually two groups that are taken and one is compared to another.
One group is the experimental group and the other group is the control group.
An experimental group is the one that receives the test sample or undergoes the experimental procedure and thus, the independent variable that is being tested for is changed for this group.
A control group is the one that does not undergo any experimental testing and hence, the independent variable is kept constant for this group.
Based on the above information it can be concluded that in the given experiment the rats that receiving leptin are the experimental group whereas those that do not receive anything are the control group.
<span>Gyri
and sulci are the folds and grooves,
respectively, which characterize the surface of the human brain.</span> Gyri
are part of the brain that shows a larger surface of the brain. When the gyri
change in structure or form it shows that a body is encountering sickness and
disorders. Sulci is one of the part of the cerebral cortex that surrounds the
gyri.
