Part I:




Lobes, the Cerebral Cortex, and Cortical Regions
                  of the Brain
Cerebrum -The largest division of the brain.     It is
 divided into two hemispheres, each of which is
 divided into four lobes.

                                                  Cerebellum
Cerebral Cortex - The outermost layer of gray
matter making up the superficial aspect of the
cerebrum.

            Cerebral   Cortex
Cerebral Features:
 Gyri  Elevated ridges winding around the brain.

 Sulci  Small grooves dividing the gyri
    Central Sulcus  Divides the Frontal Lobe from the Parietal
   Lobe

 Fissures  Deep grooves, generally dividing large
regions/lobes of the brain
     Longitudinal Fissure  Divides the two Cerebral Hemispheres

     Transverse Fissure  Separates the Cerebrum from the
    Cerebellum

     Sylvian/Lateral Fissure  Divides the Temporal Lobe from the
    Frontal and Parietal Lobes

Lobes of the Brain (4)


   Frontal
   Parietal
   Occipital
   Temporal
Lobes of the Brain - Frontal
 The Frontal Lobe of the brain is located deep to the Frontal Bone
  of the skull.
 It plays an integral role in the following functions/actions:

       - Memory Formation

       - Emotions
       - Decision
       Making/Reasoning
       - Personality

      Investigation (Phineas Gage)
Lobes of the Brain - Parietal Lobe

 The Parietal Lobe of the brain is located deep to the Parietal
  Bone of the skull.
 It plays a major role in the following functions/actions:

- Senses and integrates sensation(s)


- Spatial awareness and perception
   (Proprioception - Awareness of
   body/ body parts in space and
   in relation to each other)
Lobes of the Brain  Occipital Lobe


 The Occipital Lobe of the Brain is
  located deep to the Occipital Bone
  of the Skull.


 Its primary function is the
processing, integration, interpretation,
etc. of VISION and visual stimuli.
Lobes of the Brain  Temporal Lobe
 The Temporal Lobes are located on the sides of the brain, deep
  to the Temporal Bones of the skull.


 They play an integral role in the
following functions:


   - Hearing
   -Organization/Comprehension of
   language

   - Information Retrieval

Human brain
 The organs (the "viscera") of our body,
  such as the heart, stomach and intestines,
  are regulated by a part of the nervous
  system called the autonomic nervous
  system (ANS).
 The ANS is part of the peripheral nervous
  system and it controls many organs and
  muscles within the body.
The ANS is most important in two situations:
 In emergencies that cause stress and require us
  to "fight" or take "flight" (run away)



 In non emergencies that allow us to "rest"
  and "digest."
Human brain
 Eye, ear, nose, skin and tongue
 Enable the body to detect the various changes
  in the surroundings
 Important link between external and internal
  environment
 Makes body irritable and sensitive
 Largest organ
 Epidermis and dermis
 Dermis has receptors
1) Pacinian corpuscle-pressure

2) Merkels disk and Meissner
   corpuscle - touch

3)End organ of Krause - cold

4) Ruffinis organ- warmth
 Two parts- external nose
  and nasal cavity
 Nasal cavity has mucous
  membrane on top side
 Molecules dissolve in the
  mucous and stimulate
  olfactory receptor cells
 Olfactory nerve carries
  impulses to the brain
 Organ of taste
 Has gustatory receptors or
  taste buds
 chemicals in the food
  dissolve in saliva and
  stimulate these receptors.
 Four regions,
a) Back  bitter
b) Tip  sweet
c) Sides  salt and sour
