500 million years ago the first brain structure appeared in reptiles. This structure was referred to as the hind brain. It can still be seen in animals such as insects‚ worms‚ and snails. The hind brain is responsible for movement‚ breathing‚ balance‚ and the regulation of the heart beat. This section of the brain still exists in modern brains‚ it is called the protoreptilian brain. As time passes and evolution continues to make process‚ this basic section of the brain does not change. Things are added

Localization of Brain Function Psychologists have found that the brain often shows “localization of function”. 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
