The cerebellum coordinates muscular activity and balance of the body. The impulse of performing muscular activity originates in the cerebrum. For example, when you stand up and walk, the impulse of this activity originates in the cerebrum, but coordination of working muscles in this act (i.e. their coordination, proper timing of their contraction and relaxation) is controlled by the cerebellum. |
The pons carries impulses from one hemisphere to the other hemisphere and coordinates muscular movements on both sides of the body. |
