Organs Test

Cerebellum function

Below the back of the cerebrum. It regulates balance, posture, movement, and muscle coordination.

Corpus Callosum function

Large bundle of nerve fibers connecting the left and right cerebral hemispheres.

Frontal lobe function

Top, front regions of each cerebral hemisphere, used for reasoning, emotion, judgement, and voluntary movement.

Medulla oblongata function

lowest section of the brain stem - at the end of the spinal cord. It controls automatic functions including heartbeat, breathing, etc.

Occipital lobe function

region at the back of the cerebral hemispheres (and back of head), containing the centers of vision and reading ability.

Parietal lobe function

Middle lobe of each cerebral hemisphere, between frontal and occipital. It contains important sensory centers.

Pituitary gland function

Gland attached to the base of the brain, between pons and corpus callosum. It secretes hormones.

Pons function

Part of brainstem that joins cerebral hemispheres and connects cerebrum with cerebellum. It is located just above the medulla oblongata.

Spinal Cord function

thick bundle of nerve fibers that runs from the base of the brain through the hip area running through the spine (vertebrae). It is used to transmit signals between the brain and body, allowing for communication between the two.

Paralysis

parapelegic - waist down paralysis, quadripelegic - neck down paralysis

Temporal lobe function

lower side of each cerebral hemisphere (located at the sides of the head). Contains centers of hearing and memory

Brain function

The brain is the controller of your body, and stores information, allows you to think and learn, as well as controls vital daily functions

Heart function

Pumps oxygenated blood throughout your body and receive deoxygenated blood back in return.

Lungs function

The lungs allow us to breathe. The lungs take in oxygen which goes into the blood through the heart and expels carbon dioxide as the heart receives deoxygenated blood.

Liver function

Produces bile, filters toxins, regulates blood sugar, releasing cholesterol, breaking down fats, and producing blood proteins.

Kidneys function

Filter things like water and salts out of your blood and to produce urine. The kidneys also produce an enzyme called renin.

Stomach function

Receives food from the esophagus and sends it into the small intestine. The stomach’s role in digestion is to break down food and mix it with digestive juices or enzymes.

Small intestine function

digests food using chemicals kike enzymes. It absorbs nutrients through villi and gives it to blood. Food moves to large intestine because of a series of muscle contractions

Large intestine function

The large intestine is involved in digestion and receives undigested food from the small intestine. The large intestine then absorbs as much water as possible and then expels the waste and any excess fiber.

Pancreas function

It produces enzymes necessary for digestion and sends to stomach. The pancreas regulates blood sugar by creating insulin. It creates glucagon which has the opposite effect of insulin and also helps to maintain blood sugar levels.

Skin function

Its main job is to maintain the body’s temperature, which means that sweat is created to cool the body, and goose bumps or raised hair occur to trap heat in the body. Along with sweat glands, the skin contains oil glands.
