I think that corollary discharge and central pattern generation help us make sense of behavior in terms of neurons. Corollary discharge and central pattern generation make it easier for me to understand how we perform common daily activities so easily and effortlessly. I found our class discussion about phantom limb syndrome very interesting. It does make sense that the central pattern generator for a limb remains even after a limb has been amputated. If phantom limb is due to the non-correspondence between sensory input and corollary discharge, is there any way to stop or decrease the pain? After a substantial amount of time, will the limb’s central pattern generator stop working due to disuse?   I also found our discussion about motion sickness very interesting. I have noticed that I get car sick when I am in the backseat of a car but never when I am driving.  This also makes sense in the terms that is due to the non-correspondence between sensory input and corollary discharge
