What is the function of the cerebellum?

• Controls all voluntary movements and some involuntary

• The cerebellum helps with balance, rate of muscle contraction, and the muscles position in relation to gravity

• Allows for smooth orderly movement

Also plays a role in sensory perception to maintain balance (inner ear) 

Brain Functions

The two centers that the medulla oblongata controls.

Respiratory and Cardiovascular

Cranial Nerves ID

The number of this cranial nerve.

II or 2.

The 3 major functions of the cerebral cortax

• 3 major Functions

• 
  

  • Sensory areas that receive impulses from sense receptors (Eyes, ears, taste, nose, pain, pressure, heat/cold, touch)

  • Motor areas that start impulses that are responsible for all voluntary movement 

  • Associative areas of the brain are responsible for memory, learning and thought

• The cerebral cortex has many folds called convolutions

• Convolutions – are folds on the brain that increase surface area

Cranial NervesFunctions

The muscle controlled by the trochlear nerve.

Superior oblique muscle.

what is brain

• One of the most active organs of the human body

• The brain receives 20% of the blood that is pumped from the heart

• Brain and spinal cord float in a fluid known as cerebrospinal fluid. 

• 
  

  • This fluid cushions against shock.

• Major parts of the Brain: 

• 
  

  • Cerebrum (Cerebral Cortex)

  • Cerebellum

  • Medulla Oblongata
