what kind of afferent fibres does the premotor cortex receive and where do they come from? with what fibres is the premotor cortex in contact with the primary motor cortex?
premotor cortex has short association fibres with which it communicates with the primary motor cortex
afferent fibres to the premotor cortex form the thalamus (ventral anterior nucleus), which in turn receives fibres from the globus pallidus of the basal ganglia and the
substantia nigra of the midbrain.
