Question
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/
basalnuclei2) to learn about the basal nuclei (also known
as the basal ganglia), which have two pathways that process information within the cerebrum. As shown in this video,
the indirect pathway is the longer pathway through the
system that results in decreased activity in the cerebral
cortex, and therefore less motor activity. The indirect
pathway has an extra couple of connections in it, including
disinhibition of the subthalamic nucleus. What is the end
result on the thalamus, and therefore on movement initiated
by the cerebral cortex?
