About motor systems and movement control mind maps
GoConqr OriginalMotor systems and movement control mind maps
These maps offer different routes through the unit. Spinal Cord Motor Systems connects motor units with movement and force. Motor Control brings together planning, action and perception, while Basal ganglia reinforcement looks at reinforcement learning. Cerebellum covers coordination and the deep nuclei.
How to study with the maps
Start with Spinal Cord Motor Systems if you want to focus on motor units. Follow its branches from movement type to force, then use Motor Control to see how planning and perception fit alongside action. Try explaining the connections in your own words before looking back at each map.
For a closer look at coordination, compare what you find in Cerebellum with the topics in Cerebellar Control of Movement. When you want to check your understanding, switch to a quiz on the unit page; use flashcards there for a shorter session on terms. Choose a map and follow a branch that interests you.
Frequently asked questions
Which mind map should I start with?
Spinal Cord Motor Systems is a useful starting point for studying motor units and force. Its branches include movement type, motor unit properties and recruitment. If you want to look at planning, action and perception instead, open Motor Control and follow the connections between those topics.
What do the mind maps cover?
The maps cover topics including motor units, movement coordination, motor tracts and reinforcement learning. For example, Cerebellum includes balance and visually guided coordination, while Basal ganglia reinforcement addresses reinforcement learning. You can also find maps on motor neurons and central pattern generators.
Are these mind maps free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed on this page is free to open and study without an account. The maps were made by GoConqr users. A free account also lets you make your own mind maps, quizzes, flashcards and notes, and save your quiz scores.
