1.1.1 Structure of the Brain

• The cerebellum is responsible for motor control and coordination
• The brainstem controls basic life functions such as breathing and heart rate.
• Match the brain area with its function:

  Hippocampus ↔️ Memory formation

  Amygdala ↔️ Emotions, fear, and aggression
• The structure of the brain refers to the physical arrangement and organization of different brain areas
• The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions.
• Arrange the major regions of the brain based on their primary functions, starting with higher cognitive functions to basic life functions:

  1️⃣ Cerebral Cortex

  2️⃣ Cerebellum

  3️⃣ Brainstem

  4️⃣ Limbic System
• The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as thinking and decision-making
• The brainstem controls basic life functions including breathing and heart rate.
• The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as thinking, decision-making, and language
• The cerebral cortex is divided into four main lobes.
• Match the lobe of the cerebral cortex with its function:

  Frontal Lobe ↔️ Decision-making, motor control

  Parietal Lobe ↔️ Sensory processing

  Temporal Lobe ↔️ Auditory processing, memory

  Occipital Lobe ↔️ Visual processing
• The structure of the brain refers to the physical arrangement and organization of different brain areas
• Match the brain area with its function:

  Cerebral Cortex ↔️ Higher cognitive functions

  Cerebellum ↔️ Motor control and coordination

  Brainstem ↔️ Basic life functions

  Hippocampus ↔️ Memory formation

  Amygdala ↔️ Emotions, fear, aggression
• The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as thinking and language
• The cerebellum is essential for fine motor skills and coordination.
• Order the brain areas from highest to lowest in terms of their placement in the brain:

  1️⃣ Cerebral Cortex

  2️⃣ Cerebellum

  3️⃣ Brainstem

  4️⃣ Hippocampus

  5️⃣ Amygdala
• The cerebral cortex is divided into four main lobes
• The occipital lobe is responsible for visual processing.
• The frontal lobe is responsible for decision-making and motor control
• The cerebral cortex is the outer layer of the brain responsible for higher cognitive functions
• Match each lobe of the cerebral cortex with its primary function:

  Frontal Lobe ↔️ Decision-making, motor control

  Parietal Lobe ↔️ Sensory processing

  Temporal Lobe ↔️ Auditory processing, memory

  Occipital Lobe ↔️ Visual processing
• Which lobe of the cerebral cortex is responsible for motor control?

  Frontal Lobe
• The temporal lobe is associated with auditory processing and memory
• The occipital lobe is responsible for visual processing.
• What is the function of the parietal lobe?

  Sensory processing
• The frontal lobe plays a key role in decision-making and motor
• The organization of the cerebral cortex helps understand how different brain areas work together.
• Which two brain regions ensure basic life functions and motor coordination?

  Brainstem and cerebellum
• The brainstem controls basic life processes such as breathing, heart rate, and digestion
• What does the cerebellum coordinate in the brain?

  Muscle movements, balance, posture
• The structure of the brain refers to the physical arrangement and organization of different brain areas
• What is the primary function of the cerebral cortex in the brain?

  Higher cognitive functions
• Match each brain region with its primary function:

  Cerebral Cortex ↔️ Higher cognitive functions

  Cerebellum ↔️ Motor control and coordination

  Brainstem ↔️ Basic life functions

  Hippocampus ↔️ Memory formation

  Amygdala ↔️ Emotions, particularly fear and aggression
• The hippocampus is responsible for memory formation
• Which brain region is associated with emotions, particularly fear and aggression?

  Amygdala
• The cerebral cortex is responsible for thinking and decision-making.
• The brainstem controls basic life processes such as breathing, heart rate, and digestion
• The cerebellum coordinates muscle movements, balance, and posture.
• Neurons transmit information through electrical and chemical signals
• Match the neuron type with its function and location:

  Sensory Neurons ↔️ Carry sensory information to the brain | Peripheral Nervous System

  Motor Neurons ↔️ Transmit signals to muscles and glands | Central Nervous System

  Interneurons ↔️ Connect sensory and motor neurons | Central Nervous System
