1. HUMAN BRAIN functioning as the coordinating center of the body
 Brain is organ of soft nervous tissue contained in the skull of vertebrates,
functioning as the coordinating center of the body

2. PARTS OF BRAIN
Human Brain is divided into 3 main parts on the basis of their function and placements
The 3 main parts of Human Brain are ;
Fore Brain
Mid Brain
Hind Brain

3. FORE BRAIN
Position: It is the anterior part of the brain
It has 3 parts
Cerebrum
Thalamus
Limbic System

4. THALAMUS
 Position: It is located above the brain stem and between the cerebral cortex and mid-brain
 Function: It carries sensory information from the body to Cerebrum and The Limbic System

5. HYPOTHALAMUS & PITUITARY GLAND PITUITARY
 Structure: It is pea-shaped structure
 Function: It is very important
in Growth and reproduction
 Position: It lies under the
thalamus
 Function: It connects the nervous system with the endocrine system via pituitary gland

6. LIMBIC SYSTEM Hunger Fear Thirst Anger Sexual responses etc
 Structure: It is arc shaped structure between thalamus and cerebrum
 Function: It controls responses like
Hunger
Fear
Thirst
Anger
Sexual responses etc

7. CEREBRUM Structure: It is divided into 2 halves called cerebral
hemisphere
They communicate via corpus collosum
Cerebral cortex is the outer region
of Cerebrum

8. FUNCTION OF CEREBRUM It helps In movement It controls speech
It is responsible for sensory processing
It determines the intelligence of the being

9. MID-BRAIN
 Position: It is located below the cerebral cortex and above the hind brain
 Function: It controls reflex movements of the body and hearing reflexes

10. HIND-BRAIN Position: It is present at the backside of the Brain
Parts: It consists of
Cerebellum
Pons
Medulla Oblongata

11. CEREBELLUM  Meaning: It is latin for Little Brain
 Position: It is located at the back side of head
 Functions: It controls the balance of the body and co-ordinates the voluntary movement of the body

12. PONS above medulla  Meaning: Pons mean “Bridge”
 Position: It is located
above medulla
 Function: It controls sleep as well as the rate and pattern of breathing

13. MEDULLA OBLONGATA Breathing Heart rate Swallowing Blood Circulation
 Position: It is the posterior part of the brain
 Function: It controls automatic actions e.g
Breathing
Heart rate
Swallowing
Blood Circulation
