On justin's 21st birthday he & his buddies celebrated a bit too much. when the police stopped his car justin's speech was slurred, he couldn't walk a straight line or balance on one foot. he nearly missed his face altogether when asked to touch his nose while his eyes were closed. the impaired functioning of what part of justin's brain is responsible for these difficulties with motor coordination and balance?
the cerebellum, it functions like a motor computer taking care of the underlying details of our movements (coordination, timing, targeting, and balance)
