Animation nervous system controlling muscles

Anatomical 3D animations of efferent (motor) stimulus conduction from the motor cortex of the brain to the skeletal muscles.

Anatomical 3D animations on signal transmission between the brain and muscles. The signal to the muscles originates in the motor cortex of the brain and is transmitted via the spinal cord. When a nerve impulse reaches the corresponding section of the spinal cord, it is “switched over” to the motor neurons in the anterior horn (cornu anterius medullae spinalis). These neurons then send the impulse further via their axons, which leave the spinal cord and subsequently innervate the muscles and thus lead to muscle movement (in the video using the biceps brachii muscle as an example).
