Lab 3 - Forebrain / Midbrain Flashcards
two parts of forebrain
telencephalon, diencephalon
cortex, basal ganglia, limbic system and for higher cognitive function/emotion/motor control
telencephalon
part of forebrain that includes thalamus/hypothalamus, relays information to different brai nregions
diencephalon
two parts of midbrain
tectum, tegmentum
part of midbrain for visual and auditory processing
tectum
part of midbrain for autonomic functions, reflexes, attention
tegmentum
function of this cortex is for cognition/consciousness, motor function, and sensory processing
cerebral
cerebral cortex is blank matter
gray
cerebral cortex is made up of mostly blank because its gray matter
cell bodies
lobe of cerebral cortex for sensory/visual processing
occipital
lobe of cerebral lobe for sensory/auditory processing
temporal
lobe of cerebral cortex for sensory/cognitive/integration of sensory info
parietal
cerebral cortex lobe for cognition/high level functions
frontal
divides left and right cerebral hemispheres
longitudinal fissure
usually where language functions are localized but not always and does vocabulary/grammar/maybe long term memories
left hemisphere
cortex means blank
bark
cerebral has blank layers
six
damage to occipital lobe causes blank blindness
cortical
thick band of white fibers that internally connects the two hemispheres
corpus callosum
