Q

this lobe ANALYZES SENSORY information and relays the interpretation of this information to other cortical areas and is essential to a person’s awareness of body position in space, size and shape discrimination, and right–left orientation.

Q

thalamus act primarily as a relay station for all sensation except ____

17
Q

all memory, sensation, and pain impulses pass through this section of the brain

18
Q

plays an important role in the ENDOCRINE system because it regulates the PITUITARY secretion of hormones that influence metabolism, reproduction, stress response, and URINE PRODUCTION

19
Q

the site of the HUNGER CENTER and is involved in appetite control

20
Q

masses of nuclei located deep in the cerebral hemispheres

A

basal ganglia

21
Q

responsible for control of fine MOTOR movements, including those of the HANDS AND LOWER EXTREMITIES

A

basal ganglia

22
Q

Brain Stem consists of the ______

A

midbrain
pons
medulla

23
Q

connects the pons and the cerebellum with the cerebral hemispheres

24
Q

in front of the cerebellum ‘between the midbrain and the medulla’

25
posterior to the midbrain and pons, and below the occipital lobe
cerebellum
26
controls fine movement, BALANCE, and POSITION (postural) SENSE or proprioception
cerebellum
27
protects brain from injury

36
major functions of this lobe are concentration, abstract thought, information storage or memory, and motor function
frontal
