Lobes of the Brain - Frontal

The Frontal Lobe of the brain is located deep to theFrontal Bone of the skull.

It plays an integral role in the following functions/actions:

- Memory Formation

- Emotions

- Decision Making/Reasoning

- Personality

Lobes of the Brain Occipital Lobe

The Occipital Lobe of the

Brain is located deep to the

Occipital Bone of the Skull.

Its primary function is the

processing, integration,

interpretation, etc. of VISION andvisual stimuli.

Primary Visual CortexThis is the primary

area of the brain responsible for sight -

recognition of size, color, light, motion,

dimensions, etc.

Lobes of the Brain Temporal Lobe

The Temporal Lobes are located on the sides of thebrain, deep to the Temporal Bones of the skull.

They play an integral role

in the following functions:

- Hearing

- Organization/Comprehensionof language

- Information Retrieval(Memory and Memory Formation)
