Motor defects that result from an internal capsular lesion include: a. Paralysis of all skeletal muscles on the opposite side of the body b. Paralysis of all skeletal muscles on the same side of the body c. Paresis of axial muscles on the same side of the body d. Paralysis of the distal muscles on the opposite side of the body

Step 1
These fibers are responsible for controlling the movement of skeletal muscles. When there is a lesion in the internal capsule, it can disrupt the motor signals and cause motor defects. a- Paralysis of all skeletal muscles on the opposite side of the body: This is Show more…
