Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Upper-level controls of muscle activity include the pyramidal tract in the cerebellum, which regulates precise intentional muscle movement, and the extrapyramidal tract in the cerebellum and basal ganglia, which coordinates crude movements related to unconscious muscle activity. Broca's area has to do with speech, not movement. The substantia nigra does not control muscle movement.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The hypothalamus uses various hormones or factors to either stimulate or inhibit the release of hormones from the anterior pituitary. These do not stimulate other organs, the hypothalamus, or other glands to release hormones.
