The activities and functions of the brain
can be divided into five categories:
1.Sensation/Perception
2.Motion
3.Internal Regulation
4.Reproduction
5.Adaptation

What’s in our fish brain?What’s in our fish brain?
Spinal cord Connects brain to body and relays messages between them
Brain stem (pons, medulla, midbrain) Controls basic life functions such as consciousness, breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure
Cerebellum “Little brain”, located behind the brain stem
Controls movement, muscle coordination, and balance

Reptilian BrainReptilian Brain The reptilian brain deals with fixed action patterns and instinct
Contains the: Amygdala: fear, anger, social attraction and sexual responses
Thalamus: evolved to help relay information from the brainstem and spinal cord to the cerebral cortex, sensory and motor integration between the cerebellum, basal ganglia and cortex
Hypothalamus: controls hormonal secretions from pituitary gland––governing the four F’s : feeding, fighting, flighting, and fornicating; linked to your biological clock and circadian rhythms; body’s thermostat
