Human Body systems Unit 2.1

Which part of the NS is made of the nerves on the outer edges of the body; mostly in the limbs

The sulci on the surface of the Cerebrum can be described as:

Where are the nerves located that make up the CNS?

These ridges, or bumps, of the brain are formed when the folds are all clumped together.

What is the job of the Central Nervous System

Which brain is the most complex?

This Lobe processes info on decision making, intelligence, problem solving, and personality

This section of the frontal lobe processes information related to moving your muscles

This section of the brain stem controls life sustaining functions such as breathing, HR, BP

This lobe of the cerebrum lies directly behind the forehead

This region of brain is made up of the midbrain, Pons, and Medulla Oblongata

This "cauliflower looking" part of brain controls balance and coordination of muscle movement

This section of the brain stem is responsible for alertness, (including sleep and wake cycles)

This Lobe of the cerebrum is responsible for processing auditory info from the ears (hearing)

The Occipital lobe processes:

This section of the Parietal Lobe processes info collected from your eyes, nose, skin, & mouth

What is the job of the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)

Processes sensory info such as taste, temperature, and touch

This is the middle section of the brain stem (sets directly above the medulla)

The largest part of the brain (made of 4 lobes) sometimes referred to as the Cerebral Cortex
