The role of the [blank_start]basal ganglia[blank_end]
As learned behaviours become automatic and routine, they are transferred to this area. This area receives information about the stimuli and the responses we are making. This area is a passive observer, but as behavoiurs are repeated, it begins to learns what to do and take over most of the details of the process.
