Cerebrum: is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement Cerebrum. In this lesson, we’ll discuss the principle brain regions, layers of the brain, and lobes of the brain, as well as common terms used to orient Main Parts of the Brain and Their Functions. The largest part of the brain, the cerebrum initiates and coordinates movement and regulates Brain Fact Sheet — Parts of the Brain Cerebral Cortex: right and left hemispheres Largest part of the brain Most highly developed part of the brain Controls thinking, perceiving, and understanding language Corpus callosum connects the two hemispheres Consists of frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes. There are very complex FigureThe surface of the cerebrum is midbrain, and forebrain. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement The brain is composed of the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem (Fig). It’s important to understand that each lobe of the brain does not function alone. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. The cerebrum (front of brain) comprises gray matter (the cerebral cortex) and white matter at its center. The limbic system is underneath the cerebral cortex and above the brainstem. Also referred to as the brain stem region, the hindbrain forms as a continuation of the spinal cord and includes such structures as the medulla oblongata, LessonIntroduction to the Brain The brain is a dense organ with various functional units. Understanding the anatomy of the brain can be aided by looking at it from different organizational layers. At a high level, the brain can be divided into the cerebrum, brainstem and cerebellum. Functions of the brain stem include automatic serve very specific functions. Two of the The brain stem is located in the middle of the base of the brain. Right The brain is composed of the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem (Fig). It is the structure that connects the brain to the spinal cord. Brain’s most primitive part Controls simple reflexes, such as coughing, sneezing, and digestion Pons contains the fibers that connect the cerebral cortex with the cerebellum The limbic system is a set of brain structures that are centrally located in the brain.
