The cerebellum is linked to the cerebral motor cortex by neural pathways, this sends messages to the muscles, which allows the body to
move.

The command center of the human nervous system is the brain. The sensory organs send information to the brain, which then sends output to the muscles. The largest part of the brain is the cerebrum. Underneath the cerebrum lies the brainstem, and behind that sits the cerebellum. The outmost layer of the cerebrum is called the cerebral cortex, which has four lobes. There is a frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe. The brain develops from three sections known as the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. There are two hemispheres, the left and the right. These two hemispheres are connected by a bundle of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum.…

All cognitive functions commence in the cerebrum which is also recognized as the cerebral cortex and this region build up most of the brain’s mass (Ehow Health, 2011). The cerebral…
The cerebral cortex outer layer of the cerebrum has the two largest hemispheres that cover the upper part of the brain which are divided into smaller portion called lobes. Corticalization is an increase in size of the wrinkling of the cortex and without this we would not be smarter than any other animal. Cerebral hemispheres are divided into right and left sides of the cortex connected by thick band axon fibers called corpus. Hemispheric specialization, testing only one side of the brain by a process called the Split Brain operation, which is essentially a person with two brains in one body. The corpus callosum is cut to control severe epilepsy, but this operation is rare and is often used as a last resort.…
The largest portion of the human brain is the cerebrum. Also known as the cortex, the cerebrum is involved with higher brain functions like thought and action. The cerebral cortex has four lobes – the frontal lobe, the parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and the occipital lobe (“Brain Structures and their Functions,” n.d.; “Frontal Lobe - The Brain Made Simple,” n.d.).…
The biggest part of the brain is cerebrum. The cerebrum is the thinking part of the brain and it controls the voluntary muscles, the ones that move when you want them to. When one is thinking hard, trying to solve a math problem or trying to figure out a video game, one is using the cerebrum. (Kidshealth, n.d.) The cerebrum is made up two sides, the left and right hemispheres. The right half of the cerebrum controls the left side of the body and the left side controls the right side. These two are connected by long neuron branches called the Corpus Callosum. Each hemisphere has four lobes; The frontal lobe is associated with reasoning, planning, movement, emotions and problem solving. The parietal lobe is associated with tactile sensory information such as pressure, touch, and pain. The temporal lobe is associated with the…
If this region is damaged it will affect motor development, loss of ability to coordinate fine movements, ability to walk and grasping objects. The cerebellum is particularly vulnerable to developmental abnormalities (Castellanos et al., 2002), (Courchesne et al., 2005), (Messerschmidt et al., 2005), (Penn, 2006), (Seidman et al., 2005 ) and (Valera et al., 2007).…
