La "idea" de un sonido de voz se origina en la corteza cerebral y viaja a los núcleos motores del tronco cerebral y espina dorsal. Estas áreas envían complicados mensajes para coordinar las actividades de la laringe, la musculatura torácica y abdominal y las articulaciones del tracto vocal. Las señales procedentes del tracto extrapiramidal y del sistema nervioso autónomo participan, a su vez, en esas operaciones. 1, record 1, Spanish, - tracto%20extrapiramidal
