Document Summary
Open-loop and closed-loop control systems are based on mechanical engineering models of control: these two models are basic descriptions of different ways the __central__ and. Generate and issue movement instructions to the effectors, which in the human, are the muscles of the limbs, body, and/or head involved in producing the desired movement: true/false: both closed-loop and open-loop control systems involve feedback. In the open-loop system, because feedback is not used in the control of the ongoing movement, the instructions contain all the information necessary for the effectors to carry out the planned movement. Although feedback is produced and available, is it not used to control the ongoing movement. This may be so because feedback is not needed, or because there is not enough time to use feedback to effectively control the movement after it is initiated. In the closed-loop system, the movement instructions are quite different.
