The Brain

Cerebellum = Functions

Sensory areas interpret afferent impulses

Motor areas control muscular movement

Associated areas function in emotional and intellectual process

Basal ganglia control gross muscle movement and regulate muscle tone.     

  Location/Structure

Two hemispheres divided by the longditudinal fissure

Connected internally by the Bundle of transverse white matter called the Corpus Callosum

Each Hemisphere is divided into four lobes: Frontal ; Parietal ; Occipital ; Temporal

The outer layer is convoluted to increase the surface area

Composed of Cells or Grey matter.

Within are Nerve fibres or White matter     

    Connections
