TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Control of Movement A1 - Waxman, Stephen G. PY - 2017 T2 - Clinical Neuroanatomy, 28e AB - In more advanced forms of animal life, reflexive motion is based on the transmission of impulses from a receptor through an afferent neuron and ganglion cell to motor neurons and muscles. This arrangement is found in the reflex arc of higher animals, including humans, in whom the spinal cord has further developed into a central regulating mechanism. Superimposed on these reflex circuits, the brain is concerned with the initiation and control of movement and the integration of complex motions.
