Very simple motor commands such as reflexes or scratching are controlled by the spinal cord. Other reflexes such as breathing are controlled at the level of the brain stem, located at the base of your brain.Various regions in the brain stem also control posture. Our cerebral cortex controls the most complicated motor tasks, including goal-directed behavior.If we voluntarily want to act on the sensory information, then our brain sends signals via the pyramidal motor pathway to our muscles.he motor system is organized hierarchically, with more complex motor tasks initiated at higher levels [1] .
