cingulate gyrus function
- processing emotions and behavior regulation
- helps to regulate autonomic motor function

medial frontal gyrus function
associated with high-level executive functions and decision-related processes
medial frontal gyrus
paracentral lobule function
controls motor and sensory innervations of the contralateral lower extremity
