    Study Notes

    Functions of Brain Parts

    • Cerebellum

      • Maintains balance and body posture.
      • Responsible for coordination and fine muscle control.
      • Handles fine motor skills essential for precise movements.
    • Frontal Lobe

      • Influences behavior and personality traits.
      • Crucial for voluntary movement and reasoning.
      • Involved in speech production through Broca's Area.
      • Key player in decision-making and intelligence.
    • Medulla Oblongata

      • Regulates vital autonomic functions including blood pressure and heartbeat.
      • Controls swallowing reflex and respiratory functions alongside the Pons.
    • Pons

      • Plays a role in controlling breathing.
      • Acts as a bridge in communication between different parts of the brain.
    • Occipital Lobe

      • Processes visual information, including colors and overall sight functions.
      • Essential for recognition of visual elements like letters and words.
    • Temporal Lobe

      • Processes auditory information including language and sounds.
      • Involved in the recognition of words through Wernicke's Area.
    • Parietal Lobe

      • Responsible for processing sensory information from the body.
      • Involved in distinguishing right from left and in reading comprehension.
    • Hippocampus

      • Significant role in memory formation and recall.
    • Amygdala

      • Central to processing emotions and emotional responses.
