Which condition is more likely to involve both motor and sensory deficits?

A stroke is a condition that can lead to both motor and sensory deficits due to its impact on the brain. When a stroke occurs, it disrupts blood flow to a specific area of the brain, which can result in damage to the neurons responsible for controlling movement and processing sensory input. Depending on the location of the stroke, a patient may experience weakness or paralysis (motor deficits) on one side of the body, along with loss of sensation or altered sensory processing (sensory deficits) in various parts of the body.

In contrast, Bell's Palsy primarily affects the facial muscles and is characterized by unilateral weakness, specifically a motor deficit, without significant sensory loss. Decorticate posturing is a motor response to severe brain injury and does not typically involve sensory deficits, while eupnea refers to normal, unlabored breathing and is not related to motor or sensory function at all. Therefore, a stroke is the condition most likely to involve both types of deficits simultaneously due to the extensive brain regions it can affect.
