Study Notes
Brain Structures and Functions
- The cerebrum is responsible for perception of sensations, cognition, learning and memory, and planning and programming of responses.
Brainstem Functions
- The brainstem is primarily meant for relay of information to the cortex and control of autonomic and endocrine functions.
Midbrain Functions
- The midbrain is involved in auditory and visual processing, and is also responsible for regulating body temperature, heart rate, and blood pressure.
Forebrain Components
- The two main components of the forebrain are the diencephalon and the telencephalon.
Diencephalon Functions
- The primary function of the diencephalon is to relay sensory information to the cerebral cortex and to regulate body functions such as hunger, thirst, and sleep.
