As time passes and evolution continues to make process‚ this basic section of the brain does not change. Things are added

This means that different parts of the brain carry out different tasks‚ for example‚ vision‚ voluntary movement and speech. 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
