In Latin, the word cerebellum means little brain. The cerebellum is the area of the hindbrain that controls movement coordination, balance, equilibrium and muscle tone. Like the cerebral cortex, the cerebellum is comprised of white matter and a thin, outer layer of densely folded gray matter.
So many different structures in the brain are involved in motor functions that some people even say that practically the entire brain contributes to body movements. Though the motor cortex is usually associated with Areas 4 and 6, the control of voluntary movements actually involves almost all areas of the neocortex.he SMA is involved in planning complex movements and in co-ordinating movements involving both hands. Note, however, that the primary motor cortex, the PMA, and the SMA are not the only parts of the cortex that are involved in generating voluntary movements. also play important roles in this regard.
