Neuroanatomy Flashcards
What basic functions does the CNS provide and where do they happen?
Spinal cord- reflexes
Brain stem- coordination of autonomic functions
Thalamus- crude awareness
Where does coordination of mm movemnt happen?
Cerebellum
Where do you process jokes, altruism (group benefit over individual risk), consequences, personality?
Frontal lobe of cortex
Where does integration/processing happen?
Cerebral cortex/cortical real estate
The ridges and grooves of the brain creating folds making up and increasing cortical real estate are called what?
Gyrus= ridge
Sulcus= groove
What separates the L and R cerebra
Falx cerebri
How does CSF return to Dural sinus
Arachnoid villi
Primary motor cortex, socially acceptable, consequence, personality, language, smell and numeracy test are processed in what part of the brain?
Frontal lobe
Motor speech is what area of the brain?
Broca’s and Brodmann area 44, 45
In the frontal lobe, Precentral gyrus has primary motor and premotor. What are the areas of these?
Primary motor = area 4
Premotor= area 6
Sensory of 2 point touch, manipulation of numbers, self transcendence, predisposition for spirituality and spacial orientation are processed where?
Parietal lobe
In the Parietal lobe, Postcentral gyrus has primary somatosensory and general sensory association. What are the areas of these?
Primary somatosensory= areas 3,1,2
General sensory association= area 5,7
Language, emotion association and visual memories are processed in what part of the brain?
Temporal lobe
In the temporal lobe, there are Superior, middle, and inferior temporal gyri. They give rise to Primary auditory, auditory association, and sensory language/Wernicke’s area. What are the areas associated with these?
Primary auditory= area 41,42
Auditory association= area 22
Sensory language/Wernicke’s area= surrounding area 22
Occipital lobe has Primary visual cortes and Visual association. What are these areas?
Primary visual cortes= area 14 and V1
Visual association= area 18,19
