Occipital Lobe It is responsible for processing visual information from the eyes. Temporal Lobe It is involved in primary auditory perception‚ such as hearing. Cerebrum (Cerebral Hemisphere) It is the largest part of the brain which is the last centre to receive sensory input and integrate them. It also coordinates the activities of the other

The frontal lobe associates and incorporates all parts of behavior at the uppermost level (Cognitive Skills of the Brain‚ n.d.). This is also where emotion and social regulation are located (Cognitive Skills of the Brain‚ n.d.). Observed problems associated with the frontal lobe include; anxiety‚ personality changes‚ acting out‚ aggression and depression (Cognitive Skills of the Brain‚ n.d.). The parietal lobe mainly governs language and construction ability (Cognitive

Medulla A structure of the brain stem that is responsible for automatic bodily functions‚ such as breathing and heart rate. 3. Reticular Activating System The RAS screens incoming information and arouses the cortex when something happens that requires their attention. 4. Cerebellum The cerebellum functions as a "lesser brain" It contributes

There is the amygdala which is in the temporal lobe which can help evoke memories‚ emotions‚ and fear. The hippocampus is medial to the temporal lobe and is responsible for learning and making permanent memories. We also have the pituitary gland‚ which is at the base of your skull‚ produces hormones.

These nine parts are the Broca’s area‚ Cerebellum‚ Cerebrum‚ Frontal lobe‚ Motor area‚ Occipital lobe‚ Parietal lobe‚ sensory area‚ and temporal lobe. The brain is split into the left and right hemispheres. Different brain areas are divided by deep grooves called Sulci. There are five key parts of the brain that controls the function of your body.

The cerebrum is divided into a right and left hemisphere which are connected by axons that relay messages from one to the other. This matter is made of nerve cells which carry signals between the organ and the nerve cells which run through the body. Frontal Lobe: The frontal lobe is one of four lobes in the cerebral hemisphere. This lobe controls a several elements including creative thought
