The Brain

Learn about the structure and functions of the brain, including the cerebrum, cerebellum, lobes of the forebrain, sensory and motor strip, as well as important landmarks like sulci and gyri. Explore memory games, the roles of the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes, and understand the cerebellum's functions in coordination and balance. Discover the critical roles of the brain stem, motor cortex, and somatosensory cortex in various bodily functions.

Presentation Transcript

  1. The Brain • By the end of the lesson you should be able to • Describe the structure and function of the brain • State the function and location of cerebrum, cerebellum, and all lobes of forebrain • State the location and associated functions of sensory and motor strip

  2. Hills and Valleys • Sulcus-Valley (also called fissures) • Gyrus-hill

  3. Sulci landmarks • Central Sulcus- highlight on paper • Lateral sulcus- highlight on paper • Longitudinal sulcus-separates the two hemispheres (right and left halves)

  4. Parts of the cerebrum memory game

  5. Frontal • Cognition = higher level thinking • Emotion • behavior

  6. Temporal • Memory • Emotions related to memory

  7. Parietal • Body image • Integrates sensory information from sematosensory

  8. occipital • vision

  9. Cerebellum • Sequence learning • Balance • Voluntary movement coordination • Timing • posture cerebellum

  10. Brain Stem • Breathing, heart rate, blood pressure

  11. Motor Cortex • Muscle movement • Found in frontal lobe

  12. Somatosensory • Touch • Found in parietal lobe

  13. The Brain Can you • Describe the structure and function of the brain • State the function and location of cerebrum, cerebellum, and all lobes • State the location and associated functions of the sensory and motor strip
