THE BRAIN
Cerebrum:
The cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the human brain, associated with higher brain function such as thought and action.
Cerebellum:
The cerebellum is associated with regulation and coordination of movement, posture, and balance.
Limbic system:
The limbic system, also called the emotional brain", is found is found in the cerebrum. Like the cerebellum, evolutionary the structure is rather old.
Thalamus:
The structure has sensory and motor functions. Almost all sensory information enters this structure where neurons send that information to the overlying cortex.
Motor cortex:
sends signals controlling body movementsThe cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the human brain, associated with higher brain function such as thought and action.

Motor cortex:
Amygdala:
involved in memory, emotion, and fear.
Hippocampus:
This part of the brain is responsible for learning and memory.
Midbrain:
It is involved in functions such as vision, hearing, eye movement, and body movement.
Pons:
Responsible for facial expressions
Medulla Oblongata:
Responsible for involuntary functions, such as breathing and heart rate
Hypothalamus:
controls body temperature, thirst, hunger , endocrine system and hunger
Hemispheres:
Left- responsible for logic and sequential task
Right-responsible for spatial and creative tasks

Broca's area
responsible for controlling muscle that produce speech
Frontal lobe:
Concerned with reasoning, planning, parts of speech and
movement (motor cortex), emotions, and problem-solving.
Temporal Lobe:
responsible for you being able to understand what you re
hearing
Occipital lobe:
Concerned with many aspects of vision.
