motor coordination

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.11884
Cooperation of the motor neurons and the involved muscles to perform a body movement precisely according to spatiotemporal requirements.
Notes:
  1. Motor coordination involves signals from the organ of equilibrium, the visual system and the cerebellum as well as other neural inputs.
  2. Impaired coordination results in ataxia.
