Lobes of the brain

What are the functional areas of the Frontal Lobe (retracted)?

(select all that apply)

• Motor speech area (Broca area)

• Primary motor cortex (in precentral gyrus)

• Premotor cortex

• Frontal eye field

• Primary gustatory cortex

What is the function of the insula?

• The insula is responsible for vision processing
• The insula regulates body temperature
• The insula controls muscle movement
• Primary gustatory cortex

  (in postcentral gyrus)

• Somatosensory association area

• Primary olfactory cortex

What is the function of the Primary motor cortex ?

• Controls voluntary movements
• Controls heart rate
• Processes visual information
• Regulates body temperature

What is the function of the Motor Speech area/ Broca area ?

• Coordination of muscle movements
• Digestion of food
• Regulation of heart rate
• Patterns of breathing & muscle movements for speech

What is the function of the frontal eye field ?

• Regulates eye movement for reading and binocular vision

• Coordinates muscle movements in the legs
• Controls sense of smell
• Regulates body temperature

Answer explanation

-This is done by using 2 eyes

What is the function of the premotor complex?

• Responsible for learned, skilled motor activities

• Solving math problems
• Listening to music

• Digesting food

Answer explanation

• - ex: moving the eyes when reading or movements when playing an instrument

What is the function of the primary somatosensory cortex?

• Receives sensory info from parts of the body

• Regulating body temperature
• Controlling heart rate
• Processing visual information

Answer explanation

- Proprioceptors, touch, pressure, pain, temperature receptors
