Gross Brain and Blood supply Flashcards
learned behavior, primary motor cortex, brocas area (speech)
frontal lobe
primary motor cortex
precentral gyrus
primary somesthetic areas, association area involved in somatosensory function, integration of auditory, visual and somatosensry info
parietal lobes
primary somatosensory cortex
postcentral gyrus of parietal lobe
wernickes area function:
reading ability, understanding and speak written word
wernickes area and primary auditory cortex
temporal lobe
cortex within the lateral cerebral sulcus
primary auditory cortex
primary visual cortex and association visual areas
occipital lobe
divides the cuneate gyrus superiorly from the lingual gyrus inferiorly
calcarine fissure in the occipital lobe
hidden cortex found deep in the lateral cerebral sulcus
insula lobe
taste and other visceral functions
insula lobe
lobe observed on medial surface of the cerebral cortex
limbic lobe
vital survival portion of brain, memory
limbic lobe
collections of cell bodies deep within cerebrum
basal nuclei
associated with movement
what are the basal nuclei (4)
caudate nucleus
lentiform nuclei (putamen and globus pallidus)
subthalamus
substantia nigra
collections of cell bodies deep in cerebral hemispheres
diencephalon: thalamus, hypothalamus, subthalamus, epithalamus
lateral borders of 3rd cerebral ventricle
thalamus
link of nervous system and endocrine system with visceral functions
hypothalamus
motor movement
subthalamus
pineal gland, day/night cycles
epithalamus
phylogenetically ancient cortical structure located in temporal lobe
hippocampus and amygdala
plays role in memory consolidation and control of the ANS function in relation to previous experience
hippocampus and amygdala
separated from cerebrum by transverse fissure
cerebellum
central portion of cerebellum
vermis
white matter tracts of cerebellum
peduncles
connects cerebellum to midbrain and cerebrum
superior peduncle
connects cerebellum to pons
middle peduncle
