The Human Brain SWBAT Identify the function of the parts of the brain.
Cerebrum • 2/3 volume of our brain • Cerebral Cortex: • High level human functioning (i.e. thought, memory, emotion, etc.) • 2 Hemispheres • 5 Lobes: • Frontal • Parietal • Temporal • Occipital • Insular The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
Cerebrum: Frontal & Parietal Lobes • Frontal Lobe • Motor Area • Parietal Lobe: • Sensory Area • Regulates memory of objects, their function, and directions The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
Cerebrum: Temporal Lobes The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
Cerebrum: Occipital Lobe The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
Cerebrum: Insular Lobe The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
Cerebellum • “Little Brain” • 2 Hemispheres • 11% of the brain’s weight • Contains more neurons than any other part of the brain • Memory of automated movements The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
Diencephalon • Hypothalamus: homeostasis (hormones!) • Thalamus: sensory impulses The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 2005
