Brain Functions and Structures Assessment

What are the two main components of the central nervous system?

• Brain and spinal cord

• Somatic and autonomic

• Sensory and motor

• Sympathetic and parasympathetic

Which part of the nervous system is responsible for sensory and motor functions?

• Autonomic

• Somatic

• Sympathetic

• Parasympathetic

What is the role of the corpus callosum in the brain?

• Controls the medulla

• Connects the left and right hemispheres

• Regulates the thalamus

• Manages the cerebellum

Which area of the brain is associated with language comprehension?

• Broca's area

• Wernicke's area

• Prefrontal cortex

• Primary motor cortex

What are the two major branches of the nervous system?

• Central nervous system and peripheral nervous system

• Autonomic nervous system and somatic nervous system

• Brain and spinal cord

• Sensory and motor neurons

What is the primary function of the central nervous system (CNS)?

• To carry sensory information from the body to the brain

• To control the functions of the body and connect the brain to the PNS

• To send motor messages to the body

• To regulate the autonomic nervous system

Which part of the nervous system carries sensory information to the CNS?

• Central nervous system

• Peripheral nervous system

• Autonomic nervous system

• Somatic nervous system

What is the primary function of the central nervous system (CNS)?

• To carry sensory information from the body to the brain

• To regulate the function of glands

• To transmit motor messages to the skeletal muscles

• To control involuntary muscle movements

Which division of the nervous system is responsible for involuntary responses to changes in stimuli?

• Central nervous system

• Somatic nervous system

• Autonomic nervous system

• Sensory division

What role does the motor (efferent) division play in the somatic nervous system?

• It transmits sensory information to the CNS

• It carries motor messages from the CNS to skeletal muscles

• It regulates the function of glands

• It controls the involuntary movement of non-skeletal muscle
