The Sensorimotor System and Human Reflexes

The video tutorial explains the sensorimotor system, detailing how the brain sends signals to the body to produce motion. It covers the hierarchical organization and functional segregation of the system, starting from the sensorimotor association cortex to the primary motor cortex. The roles of the cerebellum and basal ganglia in motor control are discussed, along with the descending motor pathways. The tutorial also explains the muscle-spindle feedback circuit and reflexes, providing a comprehensive overview of how the central nervous system interacts with the muscular system.
