Frontal Plane
separates the front of the body from the back
Sagittal Plane
Divides the body into left and right sides
Transverse plane
Create top and bottom pieces of the body through the belly button.
what is the function of the frontal lobe
Decision making
what is the function of the parietal lobe
sensory output
what is the function of the occipital lobe
visual input/output and processing
What is the function of the temporal love
Auditory input/output and processing
What is the function of the cerebellum
implicit memory storage
what is the function of the brainstem?
Important in respirator, digestive, and circulatory functions
What are the 12 cranial nerves are they motor or sensory, and what is their function?
Olfactory- sensory- smell
Optic- sensory- sight
Oculomotor- Motor- eye movement
Trigeminal- Both- Facial sensations, chewing
Abducens-Motor- eye movement
Facial- Both-Taste buds, saliva, smiling and tears
Vestibulocochlear- Sensory- hearing and balance
glossopharyngeal- Both- taste & swallowing
Vagus-Both- Control of PNS
Accessory- Motor- shoulder shrugging
Hypoglossal- motor- tongue
what are the 8 major endocrine glands
Adrenal cortex Adrenal Medulla Thyroid Gland Parathyroid Pancreas Islets Thymus Pineal Gland Pituitary gland
Adrenal cortex
monitors blood sugar levels, and aids in lipid and protein metabolism
-superior and posterior to the kidneys
Arenal Medulla
Controls cardiac function
- inside of the adrenal gland (center) located superior and posterior to the kidneys
Thyroid gland
helps regulate metabolism and functions in growth and development
Parathyroid
regulates calcium levels in the blood
Pancreases Islets
raise and lower blood sugar
Cells in your pancreas
AKA islets of Langerhans
Thymus
Plays a role in immunity
-inferior to the thyroid gland, is more towards the body f the sternum
Pineal gland
releases melatonin
-superior to the cerebellum at the top of the brainstem
Pituitary gland
Plays important role in growth and development
-Sack like gland just to the left of the pons portion of the brain stem
