Unit 2- Communication Whether the body is communicating electrically or chemically, the brain interprets our needs and responds to maintain homeostasis. Retrieved from http://brainwaves.guru/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/brain-cartoon.jpg

Phineas Gage Phineas Gage (1823- 1860) was an American railroad construction foreman who survived after an iron rod was driven through his skull, destroying much of his brain’s left frontal lobe. His case was the first to suggest a link between brain trauma and personality change. Retrieved from http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-f5gjoQWNQIw/UmR2WzXeh6I/AAAAAAAADs0/Bx6j9L7oDOo/s1600/phineas+gage.jpg

Brain Mapping The specific changes observed in Gage’s behavior led to emerging theories about the idea that certain functions are associated with specific areas of the brain. Retrieved from http://bit.ly/RssPUc

Activity 2.1.3 Working with a team of four, research the areas of the brain responsible for the following actions, emotions, personality traits, or functions. Vision (1) Muscle coordination (2) Breathing (3) Happiness (4) Language understanding (5) Thirst and Hunger (6) Speech Production (7) Movement (8) Smell (9) Reasoning (10) Long-term memory (11) Hearing (12) Bodily sensations, such as touch, temperature and pain (13) Taste (14) Blood pressure regulation (15) Sleeping and waking (16) Balance (17) Problem-solving (18)

Use the spreadsheet created from Activity 2. 1 Use the spreadsheet created from Activity 2.1.2: Build-A-Brain to add specific activities and icons. Ex. 2.1.3 Spreadsheet Region of the Brain Location Primary Function Specific Activities/ Processes Icons/ Keys for Maps Frontal lobe Anterior half of the brain   Parietal lobe Located posterior to the frontal lobe, the superior most part of the brain Occipital lobe Posterior portion of the brain

Swim Cap Design Design a map of the brain that identifies key structures as well as the specific abilities or traits linked to each region.
