What roles do tonic inhibition and disinhibition play in the control of motor programs?
Animals show periods of quiescence interspersed with periods of motor activity. In a number of invertebrate and vertebrate systems, quiescence is achieved by active suppression of motor behavior induced by sensory input or changes in internal state. Removal of this inhibition (disinhibition) has the...
