2. Temporal Lobe -hearing, taste and smell

3. Parietal Lobe -logical thinking (like mathematics, logical sequencing, etc. but not planning)

4. Occipital Lobe - vision

5. Frontal Lobe - Impulse control, personal memory, personality

6. Corpus Collosum -the band of fibers that connect the two halves of the brain. It is like the brains super highway constantly sending signals back and forth between the two halves.

7. Pituitary Gland -Regulates stress, growth, reproduction, and lactation

8. Thalamus -highway for the impulses from visual, auditory, and somatosensory information to the cerebral cortex (the only sense it doesn’t process is that of smell)

9. Pineal Gland -produces melatonin and serotonin which regulates sleep and is lacking in depressed patients

10. Amygdala -feeding, fighting, and self preservation behaviors

11. -- Hippocampus -long term memories, learning, and forgetting

12. - Pons -the bridge to the cerebellum which helps regulate the wake and sleep cycle

13. Medulla -heart rate, blood flow, respiratory movement, vomiting, and cranial nerves

14. Brain Stem -begins where the spinal chord enters the skull at the midpoint where the two halves connect. It connects the brain to the spinal chord. The neck is part of the spinal chord not the brain stem

15. Motor Cortex -controls skeletal and muscle movements (located where a girl’s headband is). Movement is made by contracting the muscle

16. Sensory Cortex -information regarding stimulation received and processed, it is located right behind the motor cortex

17. -1/8 of the brain, it controls motor function and balance (it receives input from the inner ear and eyes for reference. It sends input to the muscles to achieve balance). It also has the ability to have muscle memory Cerebellum
