  • Which part of the brain controls functions that keep people alive such as breathing, heart rate, blood pressure and food digestion-Brain Stem System
  • 2. The following are the major parts of the brain:
    cerebrum
    cerebellum
    brain stem
  • Primary motor area- Frontal lobe
  • Primary somatosensory area- Parietal lobe
  • Primary visual area- occipital lobe
  • Primary auditory area- Temporal lobe
  • 4 lobes of cerebrum:
    • Frontal lobe
    Parietal lobe
    Temporal lobe
    Occipital Lobe
  • Transfers signals- Axon
  • Responsible for our emotions - lymbic system
  • Control our hormone production - hypothalamus
  • Release motors and sensory signals- Thalamus
  • Takes part in emotions- Amygdala
  • Responsible for memory conversation - hippocampus
  • The brain is divided into two:
    Left hemisphere
    Right hemisphere
  • The two hemispheres of the brain communicate with each other though the corpus callosum which serves as a bridge between the two hemispheres which was according to- Sperry(1961) and gazzniga (1967)

  • He developed a technique called "Mind mapping" in 1942- Tony Buzan
  • Frontal lobe-Part of the lobes of cerebrum which function to make decisions or decision making.
  • Parietal lobe -An area of the lobes which is responsible for sensory signals
  • Occipital Lobe - an area of the lobes which is responsible for visual signals.
  • Temporal lobe - an area of the lobes responsible for hearing
  • 3 Parts of the cerebellum:
    Posterior lobe
    Anterior lobe
    Flocculonodular lobe
  • Two parts of neurons:
    Dendrites and Axon
  • 3 Parts of the Brain Stem:
    Mid brain, pons, and medulla oblongata
  • Dandrite- receive signals from other cells
  • Neurons- the messenger of the body
  • The brain also communicate with the rest of the body through specialized cell, called Neurons
  • Brain Stem it connect the spinal cord and the brain
  • Reticular activating system - responsible for your brain's alertness.
  • Reticular activating system - located in your brain stem
  • Right Brain- are more dominant, said to be intuitive, thoughtful, and subjective
  • Left Brain- is logical, analytical, and objective
  • Cerebellum - this region controls the voluntary movement
  • Cerebrum - it is the largest of the three.
