Brain Anatomy Basics Quiz

• The brain is one of the key pieces in our central nervous system.
• The brain has to interpret and process information it receives from the outside world and then come up with responses for it.
• When we look at the brain from the side, we can see three big structures: the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem.
• The cerebrum is the big brain, and the cerebellum is where your body takes in certain sensory information and regulates movements.
• Below the cerebrum and cerebellum is the brain stem, which can regulate heart rate and breathing, as well as sleep.
• It also connects most of the cranial nerves, which are important for sending information to and from the brain.
• The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and is responsible for many cognitive functions, such as thinking, reasoning, and problem solving.
• The cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres, the left and the right.
• The left brain is responsible for analytical tasks and the right brain is responsible for creative tasks.
• There is no scientific evidence that suggests one side of the brain is better than the other.
