receives visual signals

primary visual cortex

receives auditory signals

primary auditory cortex

receives taste signals

primary gustatory cortex

receives smell signals

primary olfactory cortex

receives senses such as touch, pressure, stretch, movement, heat, cold, and pain

primary somatosensory cortex

where neurons compile a program for the degree and sequence of muscle contractions required for an action such as dancing, typing, or speaking

primary motor cortex

responsible for the recognition of spoken and written language; formulates phrases according to learned rules of grammar and transmits a plan of speech to the Broca area

Wernicke area

generates a motor program for the muscles of the larynx, tongue, cheeks, and lips to produce speech; transmits this program to the primary motor cortex

Broca area

limited to the head and employ relatively complex sense organs (senses of vision, hearing, equilibrium, taste, and smell)

special senses

some say marry money but my brother says bad business marries money

cranial nerve names pneumonic

old opie occasionally tries trigonometry and feels very gloomy, vague, and hypoactive
