1
New cards
**Amygdala**
A limbic system structure involved in memory and emotion, particularly fear and aggression
2
New cards
**Anterior cerebral artery**
supplies oxygenated blood to most midline portions of the frontal lobes and superior medial parietal lobes of the brain
3
New cards
**Arachnoid mater**
Acts as a barrier and aids in production of CSF
4
New cards
**Basal ganglia**
structures in the forebrain that help to control movement
5
New cards
**Basilar artery**
supplies blood to the back portion of your brain. It carries oxygen-rich blood to your brainstem, cerebellum and occipital lobes
6
New cards
**Brainstem**
regulates most of the body's automatic functions that are essential for life
7
New cards
**Caudate nucleus**
plans the execution of movement, learning, memory, reward, motivation, emotion, and romantic interaction
8
New cards
**Cerebellum**
helps with the coordination and movement related to motor skills
9
New cards
**Cerebral cortex**
responsible for the higher-level processes of the human brain, including language, memory, reasoning, thought, learning, decision-making, emotion, intelligence and personality
10
New cards
**Cerebral peduncle**
assist in refining motor movements, learning new motor skills, and converting proprioceptive information into balance and posture maintenance
11
New cards
**Choroid Plexus**
to produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) via the ependymal cells that line the ventricles of the brain
12
New cards
**Circle of Willis**
to provide collateral blood flow between the anterior and posterior circulations of the brain, protecting against ischemia in the event of vessel disease or damage in one or more areas
13
New cards
**Corpus callosum**
a broad band of nerve fibers joining the two hemispheres of the brain that allows signals to be pass between the two hemispheres
14
New cards
**Cortex**
involved in higher processes in the human brain, including memory, thinking, learning, reasoning, problem-solving, emotions, consciousness and functions related to the senses
15
