Question
all of the following statements are true of the corticospinal tracts, except: they provide voluntary control over skeletal muscles. the corticospinal tracts consist of the corticobulbar tracts, and the anterior and lateral corticospinal tracts. they form a direct motor system, in which upper motor neurons synapse directly on lower motor neurons. they are sometimes called the anterolateral system. i dont know yet
The corticospinal tracts are part of the pyramidal system. The anterolateral system is a sensory pathway (carrying pain, temperature, and crude touch sensations), not related to the corticospinal (motor) tracts. The other options are correct facts about corticospinal tracts: they control voluntary skeletal muscle movement, consist of cortico - bulbar, anterior, and lateral corticospinal tracts, and form a direct motor system with upper motor neurons synapsing on lower motor neurons.
