Brain disease
The germane
100
The part of the brain that coordinates voluntary movements, maintaining balance and posture, and motor learning
Cerebellum
100
The number of lobes in a cerebral hemisphere
4
100
The sudden, uncontrolled surge of electrical activity in the brain that disrupts normal function. It often causes physical convulsions, behavioral changes, or altered consciousness.
Seizure

Cerebrovascular accident (will also accept stroke)
200
Inorganically prepared protein and/or vegetable matter between two starch planes
Sandwich
300
Important structure connecting the cerebrum to the spinal cord. Responsible for regulating essential life-sustaining, involuntary functions

The involuntary, rhythmic muscle contractions causing shaking or trembling in parts of the body
Tremor

Dementia
400
Thin handheld rectangular device which permits the receiving and transmitting of packets of binary encoded data
Smart phone (will also accept cell phone or mobile)
500
Pair of large, gray matter structures located in the center of the brain, acting as the primary relay station for sensory and motor signals traveling between the spinal cord/brainstem and the cerebral cortex. Acts as a "hub" for processing consciousness, sleep, emotions, and nearly all sensory information (except smell).
Thalamus
500
This lobe helps with thinking and decision-making. It continues to mature until age 25 - 30
