Study Notes
Brain Functions
- Visual Processing: Occipital lobe is responsible for processing visual information
- Autonomic Functions: Brainstem regulates basic bodily functions such as body temperature and hunger
- Motor Control: Cerebellum is responsible for coordinating voluntary movements and maintaining balance
- Auditory Processing: Temporal lobe is responsible for processing auditory information
Brain Structures
- Hippocampus: Plays a crucial role in forming and consolidating new memories
- Myelin Sheath: Insulates and protects nerve fibers, facilitating the transmission of nerve impulses
- Thalamus: Acts as a relay station, directing sensory information to the appropriate parts of the brain for processing
