groups of things
Perception Deception
Deep within
100
This part of your brain, found right behind your forehead, is part of the cerebral cortex an is responsible for higher level thinking, motor coordination, and language
What is the Frontal Lobe?
100
Located deep within the cerebral hemispheres, the caudate nucleus, putamen, and globus pallidus together form what?
Basal Ganglia
100
this structure communicates with the brain and spinal cord and is responsible for for all involuntary functions like breathing, heart rate, digestion
Brain stem
100
Typically divivded into halves, this is the found behind the top part of the brain stem,
Cerebellum
200
Located caudal to the frontal lobe, it processes sensory information it receives from the outside world, mainly relating to touch, taste, and temperature - contains an area known as the primary sensory area
What is the Parietal Lobe?
200
This group of structures is responsible for executing actions, motor functions, muscle tone, and cognition
200
A collection of myelinated axons found deep in the brain or found on the outer layer of the spinal cord, helps to coordinate communication between different brain regions
What is white matter?
300
Located beneath the lateral fissure on both cerebral hemispheres, is involved in processing sensory input into derived meanings for the appropriate retention of visual memory, language comprehension, and emotion association
What is the Temporal lobe?
300
A long bundle of nerves and cells that extends from the lower portion of the brain to the lower back, it carries signals between the brain and the rest of the body
What is the Spinal Cord?
300
Located in the intervertebral foreman, they're responsible for carrying motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body
What is spinal nerves?
300
Located on the brain surface of deep in the spinal cord, is involved in muscle control, sensory perception, memory, emotions, speech, decision making, and self-control
What is gray matter?
400
This structure is the most caudal part of our brain,can be found beneath the bone of the same name and is responsible for visual processing
Occipital Lobe
400
This half of your brain is responsible for creativity & controlling the left side of the body
Hemisphere
400
This lobe of the brain is responsible for attention span, body perception, language skills, and processes sensory information
Parietal Lobe
400
Located rostral to the central sulcus, is important to the motor system and movement
What is the Pre-central gyrus?
500
This half of your brain is responsible for logical functions & controlling the right side of the body
Left hemisphere
500
This group of structures known as the brain stem, comprise the most inferior portion of the brain.
Pons, Medulla, and midbrain form the brain stem
500
This structure modifies motor signals. slows them down, changes the tone, etc.
Cerebellum
500
Located caudal to the central sulcus, it is the location of the primary somatosensory cortex
What is the Post-central gyrus?
