frontal
what are the main functional cortical area (6)
primary somatosensory
primary motor cortex
primary visual cortex
primary olfactory corte
primary gustatory cortez
primary auditory cortez
where is the primary motor cortex
pres central gyrus (frontal lobe)
=also on medial aspect of frontal lobe
where is the primary somatosensory cortex
post central gyrus (parietal)
=also on medial aspect of parietal lobe)
where is the primary visual cortex
surrounding and within the calcarine sulcus (occipital lobe)
=mostly medial
where is the primary auditory cortex
superior and transverse temporal gyrus (temporal lobe)
=within lateral sulcus
where is the primary olfactory cortex
mostly on medial.inferior aspects of piriform cortex (temporal lobe)
where is the primary gustatory cortex
anterior insula (frontal and parietal operculum)
what are the main association cortices (5 and 2 language ones)
1) premotor cortez
2) supplementary motor cortex
3) somatosensory association cortex
4) auditory association cortex
5) visual association cortex
brooks and wernickes
what blood vessel supplies brocas
middle cerebral
what blood vessel supplies wernickes
middle cerebral
what is the main function of the premotor and supplementary motor area
=planning and initiation of movement to then send to motor cortex
(ex: movements that require multiple muscles at once)
movements that require multiple muscles at once involve planning nd initiation from the motor or premotor area
premotor
true or false: a lesion to the premotor and supplementary cortex will lead to spastic paraylsys
false, it will not
rather it will lead to difficulty with coordination (not able to do complex motor movements such as piano)
a lesion to pre motor and supplementary motor area will cause what types of deficits
not spastic paralysis but rather it will lead to difficulty with coordination (not able to do complex motor movements such as piano)
is brocas associated with motor or parietal lobe
motor
what is the main function of the somatosensory association cortex
=analysis and recognition of somatosensory information (making sense of shape, texture, details)
analysis and recognition of sensory information (making sense of shape, texture, details) is what crotex
somatosensory association cortex
true or false: a lesion to the somatosensory association cortex will lead to inability to recognize complex objects in terms of tactile info
true
a lesion to the somatosensory association cortex will lead to what deficits
a lesion to the somatosensory association cortex will lead to inability to recognize complex objects in terms of tactile info
where is the main location of the somatosensory association cortex
superior parietal lobule and blends into the visual association area
what is the main function of the visual assocaiation cortex
helping identify colour, shapes, facial recognition
true or false: a lesion to the visual association cortex will lead to visual field deficits
false that is a lesion to the primary visual cortex
a lesion to the visual association cortex will lead to difficulties with what
a lesion to the visual association cortex will lead to difficulties with colour, shape, and facial recognition
what are the 2 streams of the visual association cortex
dorsal and ventral
where is the location of the auditory association crotex
superior temporal lobe
what is the function of the auditory association crotex
helps with localizing sounds, pitch, timing etc
a lesion to the auditory association cortex will lead to difficulties with what
difficulty interpreting pitch, location, timing, sequence of sounds
“where are how” of vision is associated with dorsal or ventral stream
dorsal
the “what” of vision is assocaited with ventral or dorsal stream
ventral
where is the dorsal stream of visual processing pathway
parietal lobe
where is the ventral stream of visual processing pathway
temporal lobe
the temporal lobe is associated with the dorsal or ventral stream
ventral
the parietal lobe is associated with the dorsal or ventral stream
dorsal
what is the general functions of the dorsal stream of the visual processing pathway
understanding where objects are in space to facilitate visually-guided actions/behaviours (analysis of the surrounding environment to facilitate navigation)
interaction with and manipulation of objects (hand eye coordination)
