Your best friend invites you over for pizza and a friendly game of cards. The parts of the brain that will be invovled during your evening are going to be the functions that we use in our common sense scenerio. Meaning our everyday lives. The more abstract things like memory from past meetings, our ability to have a conversation, the images your eyes take in, your inner ear, and the association area of the brain. These functions relate back to using the broca's area, hippocompus, hypothalamus, and the occipital lobe.
Our ability to partisipate in a conversation is made possible using our temporal lobe and the broca's areas of the brain. The broca's area is responsible for our speech production, comprehending language processing these languages, and helping a person to control facial neurons. These bundles of anatomical fibers can be found in the frontal lobe of the cortex. Composed of the pars triangular and the pars operculas; two primary parts. The pars triangular can be located in the broca's area. This part of the brain is believed to help interpret multiple modes of stimulus. the broca's area is where we organize and respond to verbal conducts. The pars opercularis can be found in the broca's area of the brain; supporting only one stimulus mode. Pars opercularis assist with coordinating the organ's used for producing speech and language because it is located near the area's of the brain that are related to our motor skills.

These elongated ridges assist with our autonomic nervous system and storing. This limbic system structure is important in forming new memories and connecting our emotions and senses. Smell and sound can be connected by the hippocompus. Our hippocompus acts as a memory indexer sending these memories to the appropriate parts of the cerebellum for long-term storage and can be retrieved if deemed nessecary for functions such as unification of
The Broca speech area is rostral to the inferior edge of the premotor area on the inferior frontal gyrus. It is usually on the left hemisphere and is responsible for the motor aspects of speech. Damage to this area leads to expressive aphasia or dysphasia (p.452)
First, the part of the brain that is responsible for higher forms of thought such as language, the broca’s area which pertains to the production of speech, located in the frontal lobe, is much needed for communication with my friends. When I first seen my friends it was the broca’s area that allowed me to speak smoothly and fluently to them, and as we sat around the table together eating pizza and playing cards it was this part of the brain that indorsed my friends and I to socialize as it helps everyone talk to one another. The Wernicke’s area that is affiliated with the broca’s area is the part of the brain that helps understand the meaning of words.
The frontal lobe is responsible for decision making, processing (like planning), and speech fluency. In our exhibit, the frontal lobe is represented by stimulating activities including tongue twisters and a “chose your
The brain is the most important organ for regulating human behavior and thought. The brain is very complex and has taken centuries to discover how it functions. The brain is separated into four distinct regions or lobes. These regions are called the frontal lobe, the occipital lobe, the temporal lobe, and the parietal lobe. The frontal lobe is located directly behind the forehead and is the brain region that controls higher level thinking such as memory, planning, and judgment. The frontal lobe also contains motor cortex which allows voluntary movements. Another vital brain region is the occipital lobe. The occipital lobe can be found in the back of the brain. Its job is to process and store visual information. The occipital lobe
Let’s begin by discussing the parts and function of our brains. The neo cortex is the largest part of the brain and the most important. This part of the brain is divided into four different sections: the temporal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal and the frontal lobe. These four sections are located on either the right or left hemisphere of the brain they are connected by axons that send messages to and fro between both hemispheres and to specific parts of the brain then to the body. Our neo cortex is what makes us so different from our primate cousins.
The brain is very complex and allows us to do different things. The part of the brain known as the
The purpose of this paper is to compare and contrast Broca’s and Wernickie’s area of the brain. The approach to identifying parts of the brain that involved language started in 1861 when the brain of a not long ago patient who had an unusual disorder passed away, by a French neurosurgeon, named Paul Broca. (Dubuc 2002) The patient whose name became known as “Tan” was the result of that being the only sound he could make, the syllable tan.
The Broca’s area is located in the prefrontal cortex, which, as explained in our textbook, is the part that is mostly responsible for our speech and our thinking. The primary function of this region is to assist us in speaking and the forming of words. This region would be affiliated as my friends and I converse during our game night. As we exchange words and laugh and roll from one topic of conversation to the next, the Broca’s area is utilized.
Dopamine limits and selects sensory information from the thalmus. The parietal lobe also deals with movement, along with orientation, recognition, and perception of stimuli. This cortical region is the main sensory area for the sense of touch, major inputs from the skin relay from the thalmus to the parietal lobe. All visual processes are carried out in the occipital lobe (true to its name), and the temporal lobe is associated with perception and recognition of auditory stimuli, memory and speech. The temporal lobe is responsible for deriving meanings for the appropriate retention of visual memories, language comprehension, and emotional association. Together these areas of the brain control the body through the CNS (central nervous system). Every bodily function needed to sustain life is initiated first through these primary sensory areas, making the brain of course the most important muscle in the
(Parkin, 1996). In addition, hippocampus is part of the limbic system in the brain that is shape like a seahorse and is located within in the temporal lobes. The hippocampus is involved in memory forming, organizing, and storing (Bailey). Moreover, “The hippocampus acts as a memory indexer by sending memories out to the appropriate part of the cerebral hemisphere for long-term storage and retrieving them when necessary” (Bailey). Furthermore, the afferent and efferent of the hippocampus are packed together and goes the same way. According to an article from University of Texas Medical
It is a wrinkled surface that interprets sensations from ones body that includes sight, sound, and smell. This generates thoughts, problems, and controls voluntary movements, alongside storing memories. Alzheimer’s will start to designate this section of the brain causing stored memories to be compromised. The Cerebral Cortex consists of four lobes: the frontal, the parietal, temporal and the occipital lobe. Visual processing takes place in the occipital lobe, sitting at the back skull. The temporal lobe processes sound and language, which contains the hippocampus and amygdala. Greatly impacting memory, emotion, and receptivity. Lastly the parietal lobe gathers all senses and is crucial for spatial orientation and
At first the brain send a signal to a spinal cord through motor neurons through to our muscles. Then, the Broca's area which is located in the left frontal lobes helps to coordinate the movement of the muscles that produce speeches and supply information to the suitable motor cortex areas, so you can socialize, talk, laugh and participate with your friends. Which means the ability that makes us have a conversation with our friends is likely made by the Broca's area. Second the Hippocampus, which is playing an important function in our memories that maintain memories to our senses and emotions that go with them. As a result it will take the fun parts of your night and the happy talks with your friends and store it in your memory so you can remember
The cerbreal cortex is what comes to mind litteraly when we see pictures of a brain it is the wrinkly part of the brain and these grooves some how store memories and records this is the recording par tof our brain. and we can get some idea what theses grooves do and record by comparing them to other mammals.(Rice University, n.d.)
The prefrontal lobe controls social interaction, learning, memory, problem solving and communication (Rice et al, 2011) and is responsible for regulating our emotions and self-control
The cortex consists of four sections, called "lobes". The frontal lobe is connected to reasoning, planning, speech, movement, emotions, and problem solving. The parietal lobe is associated with balance, recognizing, and movement. The occipital lobe is associated with vision. The temporal lobe is connected to hearing, memory, and speech. The cortex is highly wrinkled, making the brain more convenient, as this increases the brain's surface area, giving it more room for neurons. The cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres- the left hemisphere, and the right hemisphere. The right hemisphere is associated with creativity, and the left one is linked with logic. A bundle of nerve fibers, known as the corpus callosum connects these "hemispheres" (Brain Structures and their Functions). The cerebellum, which is also known as the "little brain", is similar to the cerebrum, since it also has two hemispheres and a highly folded surface. This part of the brain is linked with movement and balance. The cerebellum is assumed to be older than the cerebrum "evolutionarily" (Brain Structures and Their Functions). The brain stem controls basic life functions such as blood pressure, breathing, and heartbeat. Scientists say that the brain stem is the simplest part of the brain (Brain Structures and Their Functions).
