Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The human body carries out a lot of functions. The brain alsocoordinates the high level functions involving mental ability. Thesefunctions include language, memory, and emotions. Emotions are the expressions of the inner state of the person. Emotions can be divided into visceral motorresponses, somatic motor responses, and highly subjective “feelings.”
