1

Premotor Cortex

  • anitcipating postural movement
  • laterla trunk and girdle muscles
  • Lesion: aphaxia and perservating

2

Supplemental Motor Area

  • bilateral movemnt
  • orientation of head and eyes (scanning the room, typing while watching the board)
  • initiation of movement, sequencing of movement, muscle memory (pre-programming of motor sequences
  • Lesion: aphaxia

3

Broca's Area

  • expressive langaige
  • speech production
  • Lesion: broca's aphaxia

4

primary motor cortex (precentral gyrus)

  • voluntray movemnt, skilled hand movement
  • activaiton of the agonist's muscle, inhibiting antagonist's muscles
  • force, direction, and speed
  • spatial and temporal aspects of movement
  • Lesion: paresis (strength/control loss), loss of motor movement, spastic dysarthia
