The Brain Structures and Functions
The Cerebrum
The Frontal Lobe
The Occipital Lobe
The Occipital Lobe is associated with vision and reading. If you damage the Occipital Lobe it could cause complete blindness depending on where you hit it.
The Parietal Lobe
The Parietal Lobe is associated with sense of touch, response to internal stimuli, sensory combination and comprehension, some language and reading functions, and some visual functions.
The Temporal Lobe
The Cerebellum
The Cerebellum is another part in the human brain. The Cerebellum is located underneath the Cerebrum, and is right next to the Brain Stem. The Cerebellum is associated with balance, posture, cardiac/respiratory/ and vasomotor centers.
The Brain Stem
The Brain Stem is the motor and sensory pathway to body and face. Also the Brain Stem is a vital center for cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor pathways.
The Right Hemisphere
Did you know that the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body? It is a fact. Also the right side of your brain specializes in temporal and spatial relationships.
The Left Hemisphere
“Everything we do, every thought we've ever had, is produced by the human brain. But exactly how it operates remains one of the biggest unsolved mysteries, and it seems the more we probe its secrets, the more surprises we find.”
- Neil deGrasse Tyson
