Answer:

a supplementary motor area

Step-by-step explanation:

supplementary motor area encodes the direction of movement. Many neurons in the supplementary are selective for a particular direction of movement. For example, one cell may fire strongly when the hand is moved to the left, whereas it will be inhibited when the hand is moved to the right
