Anatomy Flashcards
(40 cards)
Governs sensory and motor activitity, thought and learning
Cerebrum
Consists of right and left hemisphere
Cerebrum
Outer gray layer that is divided into five lobes
Cerebral cortex
Responsible for the conscious activities of the cerebrum
Cerebral cortex
Help cerebral cortex produce smooth voluntary movements
Basal ganglia
Consists of thalamus and hypothalamus
Diencephalon
Relays sensory impulses to the cortex and provides pain gate
Thalamus
Regulates autonomic responses, regulates stress response, sleep, apetite, body temperature, fluid balance, emotionx
Hypothalamus
Responsible for the production of hormones
Hypothalamus
Parts of Brainstem
Midbrain
Pons
Medulla Oblongata
Responsible for motor coordination, contains visual reflex and auditory relay centers
Midbrain
Contains respiratory centers and regulates breathing
Ponz
Contains all afferent and efferent tracts and cardiac, respiratory, vomiting, and vasomotor centers
Medulla Oblongata
Cotrols HR, RR, Blood vessel diameter, sneezing, swallowing, vomiting, and coughing
Medulla oblongata
Coordinates muscle movement, posture, and muscle tone
Cerebellum
Provides neuron and synapse networks to produce involuntary responses to sensory stimulation
Spinal cord
Controls body movement, carries sensory information and motor information from the brain
Spinal corc
Extends from first cervical to the second lumbar vertebra
Spinal cord
What protects spinal cord?
Meninges
CSF
Adipose tissue
What lobe? Brocas area production of speech
Frontal lobe
Moral, emotions, reasoning, judgement, concentration, abstraction, memory retention
Frontal lobe
Interpretation of taste, pain, touch, temperature, and pressure
Parietal lobes
Spatial perception
Parietal lobe
Auditory center
Temporal lobe
