CNS Flashcards
Frontal Lobe
"THINK YOU" personality behavior cognition (judgement, foresight) Concentration, thought memory motor func Broca's Area - motor speech - (L) Hemi
Parietal Lobe
"SENSE" "BODY' Sense analysis Propioception - pos of body parts size/shape (R) & (L) Orientation
Behind the frontal
Occipital Loabe
“SEE”
Visual Interpretation
Behind the parietal
Temporal Lobe
"LISTEN' Primary auditory center Understand language/music Wenickes Area --understand written/spoken words/sounds --short/long term memory --mood stability & parietal seizures
Behind the ears
Thalamus
“I/O”
Main relay station (except smell)
–memory, sense, pain
receives from brain stem
Diencephalon (below cerebellum)
Hypothalamus
“HOMEOSTASIS”
reg’s ANS (T, BP, HR, Sleep, etc)
controls endocrine - pituitary
Diencephalon (below cerebellum)
Brain Stem
“BREATH”
3 Parts - midbrain, pons, medulla oblongata
central nerve core of brain
regs body func - RR, auditory
Cerebellum
“SMOOOTH”
integrates sensory -> Motor -> smooth moves
fine/gross motor, balance, propioception
equilibrium, muscle tone
Below occipital lobe
Cerebrum
Highest lvl of func - sense, motor, thought, learn, analysis, integrate, memory
2 hemies, (r)&(l) thalumus, hypothal, basal gang.
