  1. THE CEREBRUM BRRRRAAAAINNNS!!

  2. THE CEREBRAL CORTEX ► Largest brain structure, consisting of the upper part of the brain (only 1/8” thick!) Wrinkles mean you're smart! LASAGNA BRAINS!

  3. THE CEREBRAL CORTEX Cell bodies produce a grayish tissue make up the Cerebrum - Often referred to as “Gray Matter” - Other parts of the brain appear white (“White Matter”)

  4. THE CEREBRUM LET’S EXPLORE THE CEREBRUM!

  5. LOBES OF THE CEREBRUM The cerebrum is divided into four distinct regions, or lobes, each with a specific function. 1. _________________ ►Located at the lower back part of the brain Occipital Lobe

  6. OCCIPITAL LOBE RESPONSIBLE FOR: • Damage to this lobe can cause impaired vision or even blindness VISION!

  7. THE CEREBRUM Let’s put your Occipital Lobe to work!

  8. LOBES OF THE CEREBRUM Parietal Lobe 2. _____________________ ► Responsible for: - Helps us sense pressure, pain, touch, and temperature all over the body! Sensations (Touch) YAGHH!

  9. LOBES OF THE CEREBRUM Temporal Lobe 3. ______________________ ►Responsible for: - Also contains some info for emotion and memory - Located just above the ear, behind the temples Hearing

  10. LOBES OF THE CEREBRUM Frontal Lobe 4. _____________________ ► Responsible for: Planning, creativity, & taking initiative If you were a hotdog, would you eat yourself?

  11. FRONTAL LOBE PHINEAS GAGE
