    Study Notes

    Brain Functions

    • The frontal lobe is responsible for movement and simulation.
    • The primary function of the prefrontal cortex is decision-making, planning, and problem-solving.
    • Neurons responsible for movement are located in the primary motor cortex.
    • The orbital frontal cortex is responsible for behavioral inhibition, which involves suppressing impulsive behaviors.
    • The orbital frontal cortex is also involved in emotion regulation and impulse control.
    • Language production is primarily controlled by Broca's area, located in the frontal lobe of the left hemisphere.
