The motor system is the set of central and peripheral structures in the nervous system that support motor functions, i.e. movement.[1][2] Peripheral structures may include skeletal muscles and neural connections with muscle tissues.[2] Central structures include cerebral cortex, brainstem, spinal cord, pyramidal system including the upper motor neurons, extrapyramidal system, cerebellum, and the lower motor neurons in the brainstem and the spinal cord.[3]
The motor system is a biological system with close ties to the muscular system and the circulatory system. To achieve motor skill, the motor system must accommodate the working state of the muscles, whether hot or cold, stiff or loose, as well as physiological fatigue.
