the functions of the brain

Motor function (precentral gyrus)

Somatomotor cortex

Sensory function (postcentral gyrus)

Somatosensory cortex

Higher order functioning, such as thinking, and motor function

Frontal lobe

Learning and memory. Part of the limbic system, which is responsible for motion. It also has auditory function.

Temporal lobe

Sensory integration

Parietal lobe

Vision

Occipital lobe

Motor function

Cerebellum

Between the precentral gyrus and the postcentral gyrus

Central sulcus

Part of the limbic system which regulates emotions

Cingulate gyrus

Connection between the right and left cerebral hemispheres

The body, genu, and splenium of the corpus callosum

Medial wall of lateral ventricle

Septum pellucidum

Connection between the hippocampus and other limbic structures

Body of fornix

Connection between the right and left cerebral hemispheres (1)

Anterior commissure

Connects left and right thalamus

Massa intermedia

Sensory input to cerebrum

Thalamus

Autonomic nervous system also Neuroendoctrine

Hypothalamus

Crossing of the optic nerves

Optic chiasma

Responsible for circadian rhythms and secretes the hormone melatonin

Pineal gland

Contains cerebral spinal fluid and produced in choroids plexus

Fourth ventricle

White matter

Arbor vitae of cerebellum

Connect cerebellar hemispheres

Verse of cerebellum

Cardiovascular and respiratory regulation

Medulla oblongata

Link cerebellum with structures above the pons and below the pons

pons

Connects forebrain and hindbrain

Midbrain

Choroid plexus and cerebral spinal fluid production

Lateral ventricle (anterior horn)

Motor function

Basal ganglia

Groove that separates the cerebral hemispheres

Longitudinal fissure

Produces cerebral spinal fluid in the choroid plexus

Cavity of third ventricle

Neuroendocrine function

Pituitary gland

Inferior olivary nucleus, connections with the cerebellum
