The Hindbrain All of these lower brain functions occur without any conscious effort.All of these lower brain functions occur without any conscious effort.

The Hindbrain Label your diagram as we go. You have notes on the back of your page. You can add notes from this PowerPoint (as you see fit) to your diagram. y340/graphics/brain_hindbrain.jpg

The Brainstem Brain’s basement – oldest and innermost region. Begins where the spinal cord enters the skull and swells slightly, forming the medulla. Brainstem is the point at which nerves to and from each side of the brain connect with the body’s opposite side.

The Medulla Controls the heartbeat and breathing. Destroyed medulla = instant death ages/medulla.jpg

Pons Sends signals between the cerebrum and the cerebellum. Plays a role in sleep and in relaying sensory information (sight, taste, touch, sound, smell)

Reticular Formation Takes some information from the spinal cord and sends it to the brain. Also plays a critical role in arousal. “The reticular formation has also been traced as one of the sources for the introversion and extroversion character traits. Introverted people have been found to have a more easily stimulated reticular formation, resulting in a diminished desire to seek out stimulus. Extroverted people, however, have a less easily stimulated reticular formation, resulting in the need for more stimulation to maintain brain activity” Wikipedia

Cerebellum Means “little brain”. Responsible for some types of nonverbal learning and memory. The most important function is coordinating voluntary movement.
