    Cards (20)

    • What is the primary function of the frontal lobe?
      Decision-making, impulse control, problem-solving, and concentration
    • How does the motor cortex in the frontal lobe assist in physical activities?
      It aids in voluntary movements like kicking a ball
    • What is the role of the parietal lobe?
      It recognizes faces and controls touch and perception
    • What type of information does the occipital lobe process?
      Visual information through the visual cortex
    • What functions does the cerebellum serve?
      Movement, coordination, and balance
    • How does the cerebellum utilize sensory information?
      It uses information from the senses and spine
    • What is the function of the temporal lobe?
      Aids in hearing, understanding, and creating speech
    • What structures are included in the temporal lobe?
      The auditory cortex and memory function
    • What is the largest part of the brain?
      The cerebrum
    • What is the main function of the frontal lobe?
      The frontal lobe is crucial for decision-making, impulse control, problem-solving, and concentration
    • What is the main function of the motor cortex?
      The motor cortex aids in voluntary movements like kicking a ball
    • What is the main function of the parietal lobe?
      The parietal lobe recognizes faces and controls touch and perception
    • What is the main function of the occipital lobe?

    • What is the main function of the temporal lobe?
      The temporal lobe aids in hearing, understanding, and creating speech, and includes the auditory cortex and controls memory function
    • How is the brain divided?
      The brain is divided into hemispheres which is half of the brain, the cerebrum being the largest part of the brain which is on the upper part
    • What is the function of the spinal cord?
      The spinal cord connects the body to the brain through a pathway of nerves inside the spine
    • What is the function of the brain stem?
      The brain stem connects the spinal cord to the brain
    • What are the main functions of the different lobes of the brain?
      • Frontal lobe: Decision-making, impulse control, problem-solving, concentration, voluntary movement
      • Parietal lobe: Face recognition, touch and perception
      • Occipital lobe: Visual information processing
      • Cerebellum: Movement, coordination, balance
      • Temporal lobe: Hearing, speech, memory
    • How are the different parts of the nervous system connected and what are their functions?
      • Brain: Central processing unit, controls higher functions
      • Spinal cord: Connects brain to body, pathway for nerves
      • Brain stem: Connects spinal cord to brain
