Parts and Funtions of the Brain

• The occipital lobe processes visual information from the eyes.
• Sensory input - Letters,shapes,color ect.Auditory input - sounds
• Temporal Lobes are responsible for hearing and language processing
• Visual cortex is located at the back of the brain
• Parietal lobes process sensations such as touch, pressure, temperature, pain, and body position
• Frontal lobes control voluntary movement, speech, reasoning, problem solving, decision making, planning, emotions, personality, and social behavior
• Cerebellum is located at the back of the brain and coordinates muscle movements involved in posture, balance, coordination, and fine motor skills
• Medulla - Controls vital functions like respiration,blood circulation,digestion and heart rate.
• Pons - Connects the cerebrum to other areas of the brain and controls breathing, swallowing, sleep-wake cycles, and facial expressions.
• Hypothalamus - Regulates homeostasis by controlling hunger, thirst, body temperature, blood sugar levels, and hormone release from the pituitary gland.
• Thalamus - Relays information between different regions of the brain and plays a role in consciousness, memory, and learning.
• Midbrain - Involved in vision, hearing, and motor function.
• Amygdala - Involved in emotional responses such as fear and aggression.
• Thalamus - Relays sensory information between different parts of the brain and helps process touch, pain, pressure, taste, smell, hearing, and vision.
• Hypothalamus - Regulates bodily functions including hunger, thirst, body temperature, and emotional responses.
• Cerebellum - Regulates posture, balance, and muscular coordination.
• Brainstem - Connects the spinal cord to the cerebrum and controls basic life processes.
• Medulla oblongata - Controls vital functions like heartbeat, blood pressure, and respiration.
• Pons - Helps regulate breathing rate and sleep-wake cycles.
• Midbrain - Controls reflex actions such as blinking or coughing.
• Pons - Acts as the bridge between the Medulla Oblongata and cerebellum, deals with sleep and arousal.
• Reticular activating system - Regulates attention, movement, sleep, as well as waking and reflexes.
• Cerebrum - Remembering,learning,thinking,language and emotion
• Thalamus -Relays sensory information (seeing snd feeling).
• Hypothalamus - Secretes hormones and physiological needs.
• Corpus Callosum - connection of the two hemispheres of the brain. (Left and right)
• Pituitary gland - Master gland secretes hormones and controls the endocrine system.
• Analytical Thinking - Takes logical approaches, objective based. [Quantitative people]
• Practical Thinking - Organised, follow procedures, action-oriented, detailed, consistent, practical when solving problems.
• Relational Thinking - Feeling-Oriented. Lean more on the emotion, intuitive, value communication, nurturing, value teamwork.
• Experimental Thinking - Creative, holistic learners, imaginative, they follow their gut feelings when it comes to problem solving, like to try a lot of things. However, these people are risk takers, they are future oriented.
• Left brain - Logic,analytical, language ,reasoning, science, math, writing, number skills, right hand control.
• Right brain - Art awareness, creativity, imagination, intuition , holistic thought, music, 3d thoughts, left hand control.
• Cerebrum - The largest part of the brain that is responsible for conscious thought, memory, speech, emotions, learning, reading, writing, reasoning, judgment, and voluntary movement.
• Frontal Lobe - Responsible for personality, planning, decision making, impulse control, judgement, and social behavior.
• Cerebrum - Acts as the executive centre of your brain.
