Diencephalon
Very top of brain stem-thalamus, pituitary
Midbrain
Connection between pons and diencephalon, eye movements and reflexes
Medulla oblongota
Meets spinal cord and foramen magnum. Motor fibers, somatosensory tract, BP, breathing
Brain stem made up of
Diencephalon
Midbrain
Pons
Medulla oblongota
Anterior spinothalamic tract
Carries sensory input about crude touch
Lateral spinothalamic tract
Carries info about pain and temp
Frontal lobe
Motor, problem solving
Temporal lobe
Auditory, memory, speech
Parietal lobe
Sensation, visual spatial
Occipital lobe
Vision, reading
Brocas area
B/t temporal and frontal-speech production (expressive aphasia)
Wernickies
B/t temporal and parietal- comprehending language
Basal ganglia
Base of cerebrum-executive functions
Limbic system
Hypothalamus, hippocampus, thalamus, amygdala. Emotions, memories
Which part of the brain do the carotid arteries supply?
