Conclusions
-
1.
Isolated injury of the premotor and parietal regions of the associative cortex does not cause disturbances in a developed motor coordination associated with holding a raised forepaw with the head lowered; however, holding becomes less stable.
-
2.
Successive injury of the parietal and premotor regions, as does destruction of the sensorimotor cortex, leads to a breakdown of the developed coordination.
-
3.
The obtained results indicated that the parietal and premotor regions may be involved in the organization of new motor programs, which are realized by way of the sensorimotor cortex.
