• “Concerned with reasoning, planning, parts of speech and movement (motor cortex), emotions, and problem-solving.”
• “The frontal lobes are considered our emotional control center and home to our personality.”
• Located in the front part of your head
•The thinking part of the brain

knowledge. • Information Processing • Pain and Touch Sensation • Spatial Orientation - Defines our
natural ability to maintain our body orientation and/or posture
• in relation to the surrounding environment
• Speech • Visual Perception “

Cerebrum
• The cerebrum -- which is just Latin for "brain" -- is the newest (evolutionarily) and largest part of the brain as a whole. It is here that things like perception, imagination, thought, judgment, and decision occur.

Medulla• The medulla controls breathing
and heartbeats• “Medulla Oblongata - The
medulla oblongata functions primarily as a relay station for the crossing of motor tracts between the spinal cord and the brain. It also contains the respiratory, and cardiac centers, as well as many mechanisms for controlling reflex activities such as coughing, gagging, swallowing and vomiting. “

Movie Notes
• The nervous system is like a telephone system• There is a tiny space between neurons called a
synapse• Sensory neurons go to the spinal chord• The bulge at the top of the spinal chord is the
brain stem• The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain• The brain and the spinal chord - central part of
the nervous system
