This paragraph and answers REPLACE the problematic paragraph on page 174.

There are several cortical and subcortical brain areas involved in movement, organized in a hierarchical manner. The ______________________ ______________________ (92) integrates auditory and visual information about the world with information about the body. This has been extensively tested using the delayed ______________________-to- ______________________ (93) task, where an individual sees an object, then later must select it out of multiple objects. Information then proceeds to motor areas for conversion to motor commands. The  ______________________ (94) cortex is an important center in the planning of movement, because it organizes complex movements and executes them while modulating activity in the brain stem and spinal cord. This area has several major subdivisions, which include the ______________________ (95) motor cortex, the supplementary motor area, and the premotor area.
