Fictive Locomotion Demonstrates

Question

Fictive locomotion demonstrates
A) Reliance on feedback for locomotion
B) Central pattern generators
C) The ability to walk through fictional environments, using virtual reality
D) All of the above

Accepted Answer

Fictive locomotion demonstrates the role of central pattern generators (CPGs) in the spinal cord, which are neural networks capable of producing rhythmic motor patterns (such as walking) in the absence of sensory feedback and descending inputs from the brain.
