Fill the blank with the following:
Relay station for allowing communication between the cerebellum brain stem and cerebrum , Regulates the homeostasis (water balance, hunger, thirst, temperature, sleep, reproductive hormone), Controls motor movements, balance, posture, muscle tone and learning new motor skills, Maintains balance and muscle tone , Thinking processing senses, decision making personality emotions problem solving, Helps the medulla oblongata functions and involved in head reflexes, Regulate heart rate breathing and digestion, Connects the right and left hemispheres of cerebrum, Sorts incoming sensory stimuli to appropriate areas of the cerebrum.
A concussion is a common sports-related injury involving the brain. Concussions occur when the brain is injured by a jolt or a hit. A number of symptoms can occur based on the affected areas of the brain.
Some Areas of the Human Brain

A few tests are run to demonstrate how this manifests in tests of cerebral function. Unlike normal people, this patient can perform two independent tasks at the same time because the lines of communication between the right and left sides of his brain have been removed. Whereas a person with an intact corpus callosum cannot overcome the dominance of one hemisphere over the other, this patient can. If the left cerebral hemisphere is dominant in the majority of people, why would right-handedness be most common?arrow_forwardWhich of the following could be a multimodal integrative area? primary visual coitex premotor coitex hippocampus Wernickes areaarrow_forward
