Name the 3 PRINCIPLE REGIONS of the brain"
9.75
"
- brainstem
- limbic system
- cerebral cortex"
9.75
"
The 4 primary areas of the brainstem are:"
9.75
" - medulla
- cerebellum
- thalamus
- reticular activating system"
9.75
"
3 facts about the medulla"
9.75
"
- begins where spinal cord enters the skull
- controls for heartbeat & breathing
- right/left crossover point"
9.75
"
3 facts about the cerebellum"
9.75
"
- extends from rear of brainstem
- muscular control (coordinates voluntary movement)
- linked to learning & memory"
9.75
"
3 facts about the thalamus"
9.75
"
- joined pair of egg-shaped structures atop brainstem
- the sensory swithboard
- receives information from sensory neurons, routing it
to higher brain regions
- processes some of higher brain's replies"

"
3 facts about the reticular activating system"
9.75

9.75
"
where are the sensory and motor cortexes ?"
9.75
"
- arch shaped regions across top of brain, roughly ear to ear
sensory cortex - front of Parietal Lobe
motor cortex - back of Frontal Lobe"
