-Frontal lobe:Judgement,movement, personality, word formation -Midbrain:Help pass sensory and movement information (reflex response) -Pons:Startle reflex (sleep and arousal) -Medulla oblongata:control vital functions (breathing, blood pressure) -parietal lobe:Auditory information, face and word recognition, vocabulary memory -Occipital lobe:Visual stimuli interpretation -Temporal lobe:Hearing (somatic sensory interpretation) -Which major of the neurological exam is most likely to reveal damage to the cerebellum ? Answer:Coordination exam -What cognitive condition results when a patient can no longer make new memories ? Answer:Anterograde amnesia -Where is language function localized in the majority of people ? Answer:Left cerebral hemisphere -Function of meninges Answer:Protect brain and spinal cord, flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) -What is Dura mater and where is it located ? Answer: tough outer layer of the meninges, protects it from damage and anchor it to the skull -What is an arachnoid mater and where is it located ? Answer:Middle layer of meninges (web-like) -What is the subarachnoid space ? Answer:Between the arachnoid and pia mater, contains CSF. -What is pia mater ? Answer:Thin, inner membrane of the meninges -What is white matter ? Answer:Myelinated axons -What is gray matter ? Answer:Cell bodies -Function of cerebrum Answer:Plans and initiates movement (sensory input) -Function of Diencephalon Answer:Thalamus and hypothalamus (maintain homeostasis) -Function of Cerebellum Answer:Balance and coordination (breathing) -Left and right side of the brain Answer:Left:logical sided, dealing with language, writing and right:emotional side, artistic, imagination -Cerebral cortex: “Conscious mind”, control of senses, thoughts, and movement -gyri vs sulci Gyri: ridges Sulci:dips -Chemoreceptors: Interest chemical stimuli (taste or smell) -Osmoreceptors: Detect the osmotic pressure of body fluids -Mechanoreceptors: Pressure and vibration -Basal nuclei: Motor control (ability to start and stop movements) -Limbic system:Amygdala: emotion, Hippocampus:memory -Brain stem:movement and sensation
