Early Brain Development

(Blank) is the organ in your head made up of nerves that processes information and controls behaviour.

• Forebrain

• Midbrain

• Brain

• Hindbrain

(BLANK) is the anterior part of the brain, including the hemispheres and the central brain structures.

• Midbrain

(BLANK) is the lower part of the brain that includes the cerebellum, pons and medulla oblongata.

• Midbrain

(BLANK) is directed towards the front, when used in relation to our biology.

• Cerebellum

• Hindbrain

(BLANK) is an area of the brain near to the brainstem that controls motor movements (muscle activity).

• Cerebellum

• Medulla

• Anterior

• Posterior

(BLANK) connects the upper brain to the spinal cord and controls automatic responses.

• Cerebellum

• Medulla oblongata

• Posterior

(BLANK) a response to a stimulus that occurs without someone making a conscious choice. They are automatic, such as reflexes.

• Involuntary response

• Voluntary response

• Involuntary action

• Voluntary action

(BLANK) links formed by messages passing from one nerve cell (neuron) to another.

• Neurotransmitters

• Frameworks

• Nerve cell

• Neural connections
