NERVOUS SYSTEM Flashcards
Has convoluted surface
Brain
Brain ridges
Gyri
Brain grooves
Sulci
Highly convoluted brain surface is equivalent to higher total cortical area which signifies higher or more complex _________
behaviors and thought processes
the largest portion of the brain, functions in the interpretation of sensory impulses and the coordination of voluntary movements. Responsible for higher functions such as memory and learning.
CEREBRUM
Primarily a reflex center for the integration of skeletal muscle movements. Responsible for coordination and balance.
CEREBELLUM
Lobes of the Brain
Frontal lobe
Temporal lobe
Parietal lobe
Occipital lobes
Lobes of the Brain
controls fine movement and responsible for higher functions such as language, memory, emotional expression and personality.
Frontal lobe
Lobes of the Brain
processes auditory signals and some visual information
Temporal lobe
Lobes of the Brain
handles basic body information provided by touch receptors, muscle receptors, and joint receptors.
Parietal lobe
Lobes of the Brain
processes visual information
Occipital lobes
