Facts About the Human Brain It’s the center of the nervous. The brain is located in the head and protected by the skull. It’s average weight is about grams. It’s about 75% water. The brain consists of about 100 billion neurons. Quit

Brain Lobes & Functions Right and Left Hemispheres Brain Stem Cerebellum Frontal Lobe Temporal Lobe Parietal Lobe Occipital Lobe Quit Click to Watch a Video on the Brain

Brain Stem Connected to the spinal cord Controls processes basic for survival, such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, and sleep Main route of communication throughout the body Quit

Cerebellum Second largest part of the brain Controls posture and balance Has a role in higher cognitive processes Quit

Frontal Lobe Behind the forehead. Needed for planning, memory search, motor control, and reasoning & speech. Includes the Motor Strip: controls fine movements and is organized by body part. Quit

Temporal Lobe Below temples, in front of ears. Needed for visual memory and hearing. Quit

Parietal Lobe Upper-rear of the head Registering spatial location, attention, and motor control. Includes the Somatosensory Strip: registers sensation on the body and is organized by body part. Quit

Occipital Lobe Near the back of the head. Needed for vision. Quit
