5. Function: Corpus Callosum l A band of nerve fibers that divide the brain into right and left hemispheres & tranfers information l Split Brain?

6. Frontal Lobe- Location Frontal Lobe

8. Prefrontal Cortex - Function lLlLobe responsible for thought processes involving emotion & intuition. lClCase of Phineas Gage lClCase of Kristina Buffy

9. Location- Motor Cortex

10. Motor Cortex- Function l Processes the information for voluntary muscle movement. l Works top down and on opposite sides of the body.

15. The Somatosensory Cortex-Function

16. Somatosensory Cortex- Function lPlProcesses sensory information from the touch receptors in the body. lHlHeat, Pain, Cold, Sense of Touch

17. The Occipital Lobe- Location Occipital Lobe

18. The Visual Cortex- Function l Process sight information. l You can be “blind” with 20/20 vision l Visual Function

19. The Temporal Lobe- Location Temporal Lobe

20. The Auditory Area l Located at the top of the Temporal Lobe. l The purpose is to pattern incoming sound vibrations.

21. Wernickes Area l Interprets spoken word (auditory cortex) l Functions in conjunction with Broca’s area ( motor cortex)
