Lecture 02-anatomy Flashcards
Functions of the frontal lobe
motor + cognitivie functions
Functions of parietal
attention + somatosensory
Functions of temporal lobe
primary auditory processing and recognition
functions of occipital lobe
primary visual processing
functions of insula
visceral fn and taste (gustatory)
what two lobes does the central sulcus seperate
frontal and parietal
which specific part of the temporal lobe does primary auditory processing
superior temporal gyrus
main fn of pre central gyrus
primary motor cortex
main fn on post central gyrus
primary somatosensory cortex
where do fibers of the optic nerves cross
optic chiasm
what marks the midbrain
cerebral peduncles
Which two brain regions do axons of cerebral peduncles go
from pons to cortex
what pathway does the medullary pyramid contain? where does it originate?
cortico-spinal motor pathway from cortex
which lobe and surface of the lobe is the olfactory bulb and tract found
central surface of frontal lobe
where is the infundibular stalk located
below hypothalamus
name of groove separate parietal from occipital lobe
parieto-occipital sulcus
name of groove that separates sup and inf lobes of occipital lobe
calcarine sulcus
fn of the calcarine sulcus
primary visual cortex
name of gyrus that contains a lot of the systems the process emotions
cingulate gyrus
what connects two temporal lobes
anterior commissure
what does internal capsule contain
axons of ascending and descending fibers btwn cerebral hemisphere and brainstem +/pr spinal cord
fn of basal ganglia
regulates movement, cognition, emotion
5 nuclei in basal ganglia
staitum ( caudate and putamen)
globus pallidus
subthalamic
substansia nigra
the substansia nigra is part of the __brain
midbrain
sub thalamic belongs to which brain region
diencephalon
globus pallidus is part of which brain region
telencephalon
caudate and putamen are part of which brain region
telencephalon (more specifically the straitum section)
on either side of the 3rd ventricle is the
thalamus
what three structures makeup the brainstem
midbrain, pons, medulla
