Answer to Question 1

Answer: According to simulation theory, we gain insight into the plans, beliefs, and desires that motivate the actions of others by covertly simulating those same actions in ourselves without actually performing them.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Apraxia is a neurological disorder that impairs the ability to make voluntary movements. Although people with apraxia can imitate meaningful gestures, they cannot imitate meaningless gestures. It is believed that this difference demonstrates one processing path that utilizes memory representations of familiar gestures while a second path provides a direct link between perception and movement production.
