# Parts of the Brain 1. Part of the brain that processes information. **Forebrain** 2. Regulate movement and processing auditory and visual balance **Midbrain** 3. Relay sensory information, coordinate movement, balance and equilibrium. **Hindbrain** 4. Dysfunction: less control over their social-emotional behavior. **Cerebral Cortex** 5. It is a group of structures linked to the thalamus in the base of the brain and involved in coordination of movement. **Basal Ganglia** 6. Dysfunction: motor discrepancies, and malfunctions that can cause tremors, involuntary and slow movement. **Basal Ganglia** 7. Part of the brain is involved in our behavioral and emotional responses. **Limbic System** 8. It helps us to adapt to changes in our environment. **Limbic System** 9. 2 effects of Lesions in the Amygdala: **Visual Agnosia & Hypersexuality** 10. Damage of Hippocampus: **Narcolepsy** 11.

Plays a role in one's sense of balance, coordination and muscle tone. **Cerebellum** 22. Bridge between the cerebrum and the cerebellum plays a part in our facial expressions and movement. **Pons** 23. Dysfunction: sensory and arousal dysfunction and sleep disturbances. **Pons** 24.
