Why Wrinkles on the Brain? - the wrinkles and grooves of the cerebrumwrinkles Fissures = deep groove Sulcus = shallow groove Gyrus = bump

4
THE BRAIN ANATOMICAL REGIONS o Cerebrum o Cerebellum o Brain Stem
5
CEREBELLUM Balance and coordination
6
CEREBRUM - wrinkly large part of the brain, largest area in humans, higher mental function
7
Brain Stem - regulates visceral functions (autonomic system)
9
Figure 13.4
10
1. Cerebral Hemispheres - left and right side separated by the.... 2. Corpus Callosum - connects the two hemispheres
11
The Cerebral Hemispheres Figure 13.7b, c
12
Take the Left Brain – Right Brain Test
13
Corpus callosum
14
4. Fissures – separate lobes Longitudinal fissure - separate right and left sides
15
Transverse Fissure - separates cerebrum from cerebellum
16
Lateral Fissure separates the temporal lobe from the Frontal and Parietal lobes
18
Lobes of the Brain (general functions) 5. Frontal – reasoning, thinking, language 6. Parietal – touch, pain, relation of body parts (somatosensory) 7. Temporal Lobe – hearing 8. Occipital – vision
19
Figure 13.7a LOBES OF THE BRAIN (CEREBRUM) Sulcus = groove Gyrus = raised bump Fissure = deep groove
20
9. Cerebral Cortex - thin layer of gray matter that is the outermost portion of cerebrum (the part with all the wrinkles)
21
Functional and Structural Areas of the Cerebral Cortex Figure 13.11a
22
Fluid filled cavities, contain CSF 10.VENTRICLES OF THE BRAIN
23
11. Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) - fluid that protects and supports brain Figure 13.27b
24
FUNCTIONAL REGIONS A. MOTOR AREAS B. SENSORY AREAS C. ASSOCIATION
25
12. Motor Areas - controls voluntary movements - the right side of the brain generally controls the left side of the body -also has Broca's Area (speech)
26
13. Sensory Area - involved in feelings and sensations (visual, auditory, smell, touch, taste)
27
14. Association Areas - higher levels of thinking, interpreting and analyzing information
28
Figure 13.4 BRAIN STEM
29
Consists of three parts: MIDBRAIN PONS MEDULLA OBLONGATA
30
A. Hypothalamus - hormones, heart rate, blood pressure, body temp, hunger B. Thalamus - relay station 14. Diencephalon has 2 parts.....
31
4. Optic Tract / Chiasma - optic nerves cross over each other
33
5. Midbrain – visual reflexes, eye movements 6. Pons - relay sensory information 7. Medulla – heart, respiration, blood pressure Cerebellum - balance, coordination
34
Pituitary Gland The "master gland" of the endocrine system. It controls hormones.
35
Corpus callosum Thalamus Hypothalamus Pineal gland
