As More Visual Guidance is Required in Walking, the Activity

Question

As more visual guidance is required in walking, the activity of neurons in the cortico-spinal tract
A) Remains the same
B) Increases
C) Decreases
D) Has yet to be studied

Accepted Answer

The cortico-spinal tract is responsible for the voluntary movement of skeletal muscles. As visual guidance is required in walking, it is likely that the activity of neurons in the cortico-spinal tract would increase to ensure appropriate muscle activation and movement.
