Both the Cerebral and Cerebellar cortex are symmetrical and divided into right and left hemispheres. The superficial layer of the hemisphere has the gray matter and is a few millimeters in thickness; whereas the interior hemisphere is made partly of white matter with nuclei of gray matter in the Cerebellar cortex. The Gray matter has the bodies of nerve and glial cells in contrast to the white matter which consists
most mysterious. It is the control center of the body and it’s important to understand the complexity of the human brain. Although your brain functions as a whole, it consists of three main parts, The Central Core, the Limbic System, and the Cerebral Cortex. Then those parts break into even smaller parts. The brain is just like the computer, it depends on certain parts to work correctly and get every day jobs and even more complex jobs done. The Central Core The Central Core is the first of the
sells that serve as a sentinel or guard to the Brain is the Reticular Formation. Long tracts of fibers that run from the Reticular formation give information to the Thalamus, which channels sensory information to the appropriate area of the Cerebral Cortex."Damage to the cerebellum interrupts the flow of otherwise smooth movement causing it to appear uncoordinated and jerky." (Zimbardo, and Richard 73) Attached to the base of the skull at the bottom of the Brain Stem is the Cerebellum, coordinating

hemisphere. The two hemispheres are then connected by the corpus callosum. the cerebrum is covered by a thin layer of gray tissue called the cerebral cortex. The cerebral cortex is in turn divided into four lobes: frontal lobes, parietal lobes, temporal lobes, and occipital lobes. The cerebrum or telencephalon. The four different lobes located within the cerebral cortex have individual
The cerebrum also known as the cerebral cortex is the largest part of the human brain. It is associated with brain function such as thought and action. four sections make up the cerebral cortex, called "lobes": the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and temporal lobe. The Occipital Lobe is associated with the visual process. This region receives input from the retina. The mind is than able to interpret color and other vision aspects. It is located at the rear portion of the skull, behind

Cortical plasticity explains to us that changes in neuronal circulatory methods and information processing has lead us to receiving information by experiencing encountering obstacles (McEwen et al. 2013). The plasticity in the brain is very crucial as it is involved in several adaptive tasks in brain regions of young infants (McEwen et al. 2013). The plasticity of the PFC has been known to being significant for the functionality of cognitive tasks in children (McEwen et al. 2013). Basic elements
chemoreceptors? They trigger visceral reflexes They are found in carotid bodies They are interoceptors They are classed as nociceptors Identify the type of information that travels along the anterior corticospinal tracts proprioception to the cerebral cortex pain and crude touch sensations visceral motor commands to smooth muscle motor commands to skeletal muscles A mechanoreceptor in the papillary layer of the dermis that responds to fine touch is a Free nerve ending Ruffini corpuscle Root hair
The human brain is composed of many important parts of everyday life. The exterior part of the brain has 9 part in which include are divided into different sections, lobes, cortex, and areas. Within the lobes, it includes frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes. In cortexes, it has the motor cortex, and the sensory cortex. Within the areas section it includes Broca’s Area. The cerebellum is a small version of the brain, and the cerebrum is the like the whole brain. Although the brain is about
