A patient in the hospital is undergoing testing. The patient's brain is sending electrical signals to motor neurons, but the muscles are not moving in response. What could be a likely cause for this? Explain your answer using complete sentences.

Damage to interneurons.

Explanation:

The main cause of this situation is the damage occurs to the interneurons which is responsible for sending of instructions. The motor neurons can't receive the instruction from the central nervous system which results no movement of muscles. There must be damaged occur to interneurons because these neurons are responsible for sending instructions from central nervous system so if the information can be passed to the motor neurons so no movement occurs in the muscles.

that would be called plucking : )

explanation:

''plucking, also referred to as quarrying, is a glacial phenomenon that is responsible for the erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint blocks". as a glacier moves down a valley, friction causes the basal ice of the glacier to melt and infiltrate joints (cracks) in the bedrock."
