Ch 15 Lec 2 - Human Brain Flashcards
this means tiny person
homunculus
four sensory cortexes
visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory
sensory cortex in occipital lobe
visual
auditory cortex is in the blank lobe
temporal
one associated with most large motor or sensory cortexes
association areas
four association areas
somatic sensory, somatic motor, visual, auditory
association area that you can train in your brain
somatic motor
high order integrative regions
cerebral regions
cerebral region that is for abstract intellectual function like predictions and problem solving
prefrontal cortex
prefrontal cortex controls blank context and blank
emotional, motivation
timing is another thing done by the blank
prefrontal cortex
a removal of the prefrontal cortex of the brain
prefrontal lobotomy
people who have blank or blank have trouble with emotional context
ausberger’s, autism
cerebral region that regulates breathing and vocalization
broca’s speech center
broca’s speech center works with the blank
general interpretive area
cerebral region that is for interpretation of both written and verbal language and detects sentence structure and word linkage
general interpretive area
damage to either of the cerebral regions results in some sort of blank
aphasia
higher order integrative regions may be different between blank
hemispheres
hemisphere that speech, writing, and general interpretive area
categorical
hemisphere that is for identification of familiar objects, touch, spatial analysis, and emotional relevance
representational
blank people tend to have their categorical hemisphere on the blank and vice versa
right-handed, left
masses of gray matter deep in cerebral hemisphere
basal nuclei
basal nuclei act as a blank station for motor impulses starting in cerebral cortex and passing to blank and blank
relay, brain stem, spinal cord
two basal nuclei
claustrum, lentiform nucleus
