X Period- Review for Brain test Note cards as study cards!!! Hemisphere Dominance Brain hemisphere that person uses mostexcels in hemisphere skills Motor cortex On each hemisphere, controls movement Sensory Cortex On each hemisphere, controls touch Occipital lobe Back of the brain, processes sight Frontal cortex Judgement, personality The larger it is the more sophisticated the species Left Hemisphere Language, logic Right Hemisphere Spatial, creativity, face recognition Corpus callosum Neural cables connecting the left and right hemispheres Cerebral cortex Upper brain- controls all human functions, example—thinking, personality Lower Brain Controls non- thinking processes example- heart rate, temperature Hemispheres Cerebral cortex divided into 2 parts– left and right cerebellum Lower brain part– controls balance Hypothalamus Controls basics such as hunger and thirst Central nervous system Consists of the brain and the spinal column Thalamus Relays messages to the brain to the part to be processed Pituitary gland Master gland– controls growth Neurons Individual brain cells Neural pathway- One way communication axon – synapse-- dendrite Synapse Space between neurons Axon Sends message across synapse to next neuron Dendrite End of neuron that receives message Endocrine system Chemical messenger system of brainglands and hormones RAS Located in brain stem- regulates alertness Reflex Lowest form of behavior– spinal column deals with them Thyroid gland Controls metabolism Hormones Produced by glands neurotransmitters Chemicals in the brain– ex. histamine Gage Accident that proved different functions for different brain parts Adrenal glands Send extra strength hormones to muscles
