Motor Control and Sensorimotor Behavior Quiz

What is the focus of Section 3 in the course outline?

• Reflexes, Posture, and Locomotion

• Fundamentals of Sensorimotor Control

• Execution and Learning of Sensorimotor Behavior

• Motor Control and Neurorehabilitation

Which of the following is NOT a topic listed under Section 3?

• Reflex Behavior

• Posture

• Motor Units

• Sequences and Series

What is one of the objectives related to motor units?

• Define and differentiate between motor units and motor pools

• Describe the differences between stimulus-elicited and voluntary motor control

• Understand neuronal circuitry for reflexes

• Explain timing constraints for stimulus-elicited behavior

Which reflexes are mentioned in the objectives?

• Stretch reflex, tendon reflex, and withdrawal reflexes

• Knee-jerk reflex, blink reflex, and startle reflex

• Pupillary reflex, gag reflex, and cough reflex

• Achilles reflex, Babinski reflex, and plantar reflex

What is stimulus-elicited behavior?

• A voluntary response to a stimulus

• An involuntary and immediate response produced as a result of sensory stimulation

• A delayed response to a stimulus

• A learned behavior over time

Which of the following is an example of stimulus-elicited behavior?

• Learning to ride a bike

• Startle reaction/reflex

• Solving a math problem

• Cooking a meal

What is a characteristic of stimulus-elicited behavior?

• It is a voluntary response to a stimulus.

• It involves a long delay between stimulus and response.

• It is an involuntary response to a stimulus.

• The response can be modified over time.

What does it mean for a behavior to be "stimulus-elicited"?

• The response can be delayed.

• The time between stimulus and response is short and not modifiable.

• The response is voluntary and can be changed.

• The stimulus and response are unrelated.

What is the term used for the time taken for a voluntary movement?

• Response latency

• Reaction time

• Reflex time

• Stimulus duration

In the context of stimulus-elicited behavior, what is the term for the time taken for an involuntary movement?

• Reaction time

• Reflex duration

• Response latency

• Stimulus interval
