reflecting a greater capacity of one side of the brain over another. The brain has much more development and refining during this time. The cerebellum is at the rear and base of the brain and aids in the balance and control of body movement. The reticular formation is in the brain stem and maintains alertness and consciousness. The part of the brain that has two cortical hemispheres and lots of fibers that connect the two hemispheres is the corpus callosum. Extreme emotional deprivation can interfere with

Chapter 2- Neuroscience and biological foundations Glial Cells (three types): Make up about 90% of the brain’s total cells. They also supply nutrients and oxygen‚ perform clean up tasks‚ and insulate one neuron from another so that their neural messages are not scrambled. Oligodedreocytes: helps to create the myelin sheath. Purpose speed up communication in the brain. Insulate axons. Makes Neural transmissions. Microglia: Special immune cells in the brain.
