    Study Notes

    Cerebral Structure and Function

    • The cerebellum is connected by the vermis, a narrow structure that bridges the left and right cerebellum.

    Cerebrum Function

    • The frontal lobe is responsible for reasoning and problem-solving, showcasing its role in higher-level cognitive functions.
    • The precentral gyrus in the frontal lobe is primarily responsible for controlling voluntary movements.

    Brain Structure and Divisions

    • The central sulcus divides the frontal and parietal lobes, separating these two distinct brain regions.
    • The corpus callosum connects the right and left hemispheres of the cerebrum, facilitating interhemispheric communication.

    Brain Function and Localization

    • Broca's area, located in the frontal lobe, is associated with language articulation and attention, highlighting its importance in verbal communication.
    • The occipital lobe is responsible for processing visual information, making it a crucial region for visual perception.

    Brain Structure and Function

    • The lateral sulcus, also known as the sylvian fissure, separates the frontal and temporal lobes, and plays a key role in language processing.
    • The cerebellum is associated with equilibrium and posture, demonstrating its importance in maintaining balance and coordination.

    Temporal Lobe Function

    • The temporal lobe is primarily responsible for processing auditory information, including sound recognition and memory.
