  1. Brain Jeopardy! Final Jeopardy

  2. Temporal Lobe

  3. Parietal Lobe

  4. Corpus Callosum

  5. Hippocampus

  6. Hypothalamus

  7. This area of the brain contains specific regions of the body. The larger the section the more sensitive the body part is.

  8. Somatosensory Cortex

  9. Damage to this area would mean you couldn’t balance, do a cartwheel, or throw a ball.

  10. Cerebellum

  11. Name 2 functions of the frontal lobe.

  12. Reasoning, problem solving, movement, planning, working memory

  13. Name the 2 functions of the parietal lobe.

  14. Sensory processing (temperature, touch, etc.) and visuospatial processing

  15. Name the function of Broca’s Area.

  16. Language production

  17. This structure would be active if you were in a life-threatening situation.

  18. Amygdala

  19. This area allows the two halves of the brain to communicate.

  20. Corpus callosum

  21. This area is the “grand central station” of the brain.

  22. Thalamus

  23. Name 2 functions of the brainstem.

  24. Reflexes, breathing, heart rate, sleep

  25. Name the function of the hippocampus.

  26. Memory storage and spatial memory.

  27. Neurotransmitters

  28. Axon

  29. Dendrites

  30. Axon Terminal

  31. Myelin Sheath

  32. If I am solving a math problem I use this hemisphere.

  33. Left

  34. This man became a famous case study for processes of the frontal lobe due to an accident that resulted in damage to this area.

  35. Phineas Gage

  36. Describe how an electrical impulse travels through a neuron.

  37. Dendrite  Cell Body  Axon/Myelin Sheath  Axon Terminal  Neurotransmitters  Synapse

  38. This area, when damaged, results in “word salad”.

  39. Wernicke’s Area

  40. Name the 3 functions done primarily in the right hemisphere.
