There are two types of motor disabilities. An individual may have difficulty coordinating large muscles, such as the muscles of the arms and legs, and have what is called a gross motor disability. On the other hand, a person may struggle to use smaller muscle groups, such as those in their hands, and have a fine motor disability. 2, record 1, English, - motor%20disorder

L'incapacité motrice correspond à la réduction des aptitudes reliées à la motricité, dont la mobilité, l'agilité, les mouvements réflexes et les autres mouvements volontaires (par exemple, de la bouche ou des paupières). Elle peut provenir, entre autres, de lésions des centres nerveux qui commandent la contraction musculaire, de pertes du système squelettique, de certains troubles métaboliques ou d'une malformation à la naissance. 1, record 1, French, - incapacit%C3%A9%20motrice
