lobe in the front
frontal lobe
the cells life support center
Cell Body
controls most of the functions of the mind and the body
Central Nervous System
posterior part of the brain
brain stem
corpus callosum severed or absent, so as to eliminate the main connection between the two hemispheres of the brain.
Split-Brian
lobe that is involved in auditory processing
temporal lobe
Receive messages from other cells
Dendrites
the nervous system outside the brain and the body
Peripheral Nervous System
receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements.
Cerebellum
coordinates the left side of the body, and performs tasks that have do with creativity and the arts.
Right-Hemisphere
visual processing lobe
occipital lobe
Passes messages away from the cell body to other neurons
Axon
controls voluntary movements
Somatic Nervous System
emotions, memories and arousa
Limbic system
The left side of the brain is responsible for controlling the rightside of the body. It also performs tasks that have to do with logic,
Left-Hemisphere
sensation and perception lobe
parietal lobe
form junctions with other cells
Terminal Branches of Axon
regulates digestion, heart rate, pupillary response, etc.
Autonomic Nervous System
releasing hormones. regulating body temperature.
Hypothalamus
controls all of the body's senses taste,smell
Sensory cortex
where are all of the lobes located
in the cerebral cortex
Covers the axon of some neurons and helps speed neural impulses
Myelin Sheath
regulate the body's unconscious response
Sympathetic Nervous System
key role in the processing of emotions, the amygdala forms part of the limbic system.
Amygdala
controls the body motions
motor cortex
