The five major divisions of the brain are the Telencephalon (cerebral hemispheres)‚ the Diencephalon‚ the Mesencephalon (midbrain)‚ the Metencephalon‚ and the Myelencephalon (medulla). The Telencephalon is the largest portion of the brain. This portion of the brain is in charge of voluntary movements‚ sensory input‚ and complex cognitive process (learning‚ speaking‚ and problem solving skills). The Diencephalon is composed of two structures‚ the thalamus and the hypothalamus. The thalamus holds

together with one another. There are three major chemical bonds and they are‚ Ionic‚ Covalent‚ and Hydrogen bonds. An example of a covalent bond would be SCl^2 which is Sulfur dichloride. SCl^2 is a covalent bond because since they are close to each other in valence electrons‚ they have almost full outer shells so they share electrons with one another. A good example is table salt NaCl‚ because they are on opposite sides of the periodic table therefore that means that they are different and one has less
