Study Notes
Functions of the Brain
-
Contraction of voluntary muscles
- Controlled by the motor cortex, responsible for initiating movement.
-
Concentration and problem solving
- Primarily associated with the prefrontal cortex, involved in higher cognitive functions and complex decision-making.
Brain Structures and Areas
-
Cerebellum
- Located at the back of the brain, vital for coordination, balance, and fine motor skills.
-
Auditory area
- Located in the temporal lobe, crucial for processing sounds and auditory information.
-
Interpretation of auditory
- Involves recognizing and understanding sounds, including language and music.
-
Motor speech area
- Also known as Broca's area, situated in the frontal lobe, essential for speech production and language processing.
-
Wernicke's area
- Located in the temporal lobe, responsible for language comprehension and the formation of coherent speech.
