The disease poliomyelitis (po′le-o-mi′˘e-li′tis) destroys motor neurons, causingloss of muscle function and even flaccid paralysis. Some patients recoverbecause axon branches form from the remaining motor neurons. Thesebranches innervate the paralyzed muscle fibers to produce motor unitswith many more muscle fibers than usual. How does this reinnervation ofmuscle fibers affect the degree of muscle control in a person who hasrecovered from poliomyelitis?
