What coordinates muscular activity?
The cerebellum, the nervous system and oxygenated blood. A stroke can stop many areas of the brain from functioning properly because it must have oxygen, water, blood, nutrients, and hormones to keep it working correctly. The nerves will be affected too. That is why you see paralysis often on people who suffer strokes. When there are tumors they can affect the entire body and the brain muscles or functions.
Do people with aspergers tend to be left brained or right brained?
Actually, it is not correct to divide people into "left-brained" and "right-brained." Everybody uses both sides of their brains. The two hemispheres work together. Interestingly, women don't even have very much difference between the two hemispheres.
So people with aspergers are "whole-brained," as is everyone else.
However, there are other aspie brain differences, for instance "androgynous" brains that don't follow the norms for the brains of men or women.
What is an analogy that illustrates the role of the thalamus?

Why aren't elephants smarter than humans?
Because they have no ability to think and act as humans.
Answer:
The intelligence of elephants is well known. Their brains are as complex and larger than those of humans. They exhibit many traits of human intelligent behaviour:
- grief
- learning
- allomothering
- mimicry
- art
- play
- a sense of humor
- altruism
- use of tools
- compassion
- cooperation
- self-awareness
- sense of family and tribe
- memory
- language
The question is then"Are they smarter than humans." which presupposes that humans are the benchmark of intelligence. In that elephant intelligent behaviour exceeds human behaviour in many aspects in that they:
- don't kill or murder
- are loyal
- can survive without technology
- don't steal
- care for their ill and aged
it may be that they are smarter than humans.
