    Tutorial: The Brain The brain was a mystery for a very long time. Modern imaging has allowed us to study the brain and locate where important functions are occurring. Please remember that the functions do not happen in just one area of the brain. Many neural layers and areas are found in any one activity that happens. But what we do know though is that some areas do appear to be predominantly involved in certain functions. We will learn about the brain in the three-part model. We’ll first look at

The idea is that not all parts of the brain do the same thing‚ and that each part functions on its own‚ without the aid of other areas of the brain. This may seem obvious‚ but other organs‚ such as the liver‚ do not show localization of function; one part of the liver
