Lobes Of The Brain
The hemispheres are a part of the Central Nervous System.
What is cerebral?
Middle part of the brainstem
What is pons?
Hierarchical structure composed of 86 billion neurons that interacts with other neurons through synapses to aid in motor control
What is the nervous system?
The amount of Cranial Nerves found.
What is 12?
Transmits information away from soma.
What is the function of an Axon?
The four cerebral lobes that serve in specialized roles in speech, language, and hearing.
What are the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes?
The most inferior part of the brain.
What is Medulla?
Central Nervous System (CNS) and Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
What are the two main components of the nervous system?
The location of the brain where the cranial nerves serve and arise.
What is the brainstem?
Transmits information toward soma.
What is the function of a Dendrite?
Massive bundle of tissue that connects structures across the two hemispheres of the cerebral.
What is corpus callosum?
Fourth Ventricle
What ventricle allows cerebrospinal fluid into the brain stem?
Composed of the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, diencephalon, brainstem, and spinal cord
What is the central nervous system made of?
The 5 cranial nerves that provide movement to the eyes.
What is I, II, III, IV, and VI?
Supply nutrients and ion and neurotransmitter regulation at the synapse.
What are Astrocytes?
Two areas of cortical tissue that play important roles in speech, language, hearing, and swallowing.
What are the insula and components of the limbic system?
Contains many autonomic regulatory nuclei.
What does the Brainstem contain?
Composed of twelve cranial nerves and thirty-one spinal nerves
What is the peripheral nervous system made of?
The cranial nerves that are mixed, sensory, and motor.
What is sensory: I, II, VIII
What is motor: III, IV, VI, XI, XII
What is mixed: V, VII, IX, X
Glial cells that make up CNS myelin.
What are Oligodendrites?
Collection of structures within the cerebral hemispheres that serves emotions, motivation, memory, and adaptive functions.
What is the limbic lobe?
Corticobulbar tract
What allows communication between the brainstem and central nervous system?
Controls the voluntary bodily functions and reactions
What is the somatic nervous system?
The 7 specific cranial nerves types.
What is general somatic afferent, special somatic afferent, general visceral afferent, special visceral afferent, general visceral efferent, general somatic efferent, and special visceral efferent?
Glial cells that make up PNS myelin.
What are Schwann cells?
