responsible for perceiving thinking and evaluating sensory information

two major parts of forebrain

midbrain is alsco called as:

associated with motor functions , auditory and visual responses

contains both metencephalon and myelencephalon. associated with balance, equilibrium and coordination of movement along with autonomic functions such as breathing and heart rate

involved in cognition and voluntary movements. diseases related to damages of this are are Huntington's and PArkinson's

relays info between the pheripheral nerves and spinal cord up to the upper parts of brain

speech production and understanding language

deep grove that separates parietal lobe and frontal lobe

controls movement coordination, maintains balance and equillibrium

outer portion of cerebrum, receives and processes sensory information

involves with decision makingh, problem solving and planning

involved with vision and color recognition

receives and processes sensory information

involved in emotional responses, memory and speech

largest portion of brain. consists of folded budges called gyri that creates deep furrows

thick band of fibers that connects the right and left brain hemisphere

involved in emotional responses, hormone secretions and memory

a fold in the brain involved with sensory inputconcerning emotions and the regulations of aggresive behavior

an arching, fibrous brand of white matter that connects the hippocampus and hypothalamus

directs a multitude of important functions such as body temp, hunger and homeostasis

receives sensory information from the olfactory bulb and is involved in identification of odor

mass of gray matter cells that relay sensory signals to and from the spinal cord and cerebrum

lower part of the brainstem that helps control autonomic functions

membranes that cover and protect the brain and spinal cord

endocrine gland involved with biological rhythm, regulates other endocrine glands

relays sensory info between cerebrum and cerebellum

region of the brain where spoken language is understood

regulates awareness and sleep

dorsal region of the mesencephalon, assists in visual and auditory reflexes

ventral region of mesencephalon, includes the reticular formation and red structure

connecting systems of internal brain cavities filled with cerebrospinal fluid

canal that is located between 3rd and 4th ventricle

produces cerebrospinal fluid

canal that runs between the pons, medulla oblongata, and cerebellum

largest ventricle and is located in both brain hemisphere

provides pathway for cerebrospinal fluid to flow

large bundle of nerve fibers located at the back

most vital part of the entire brain, contains important control centers for heart and lungs
