Textbook Question
Chapter 49, Problem 4IQ
Identify the structures (a-g) in the following illustration of the human brain. Then match the functions (1-7) to these structures.
Functions
- 1. Coordinates balance and movement
- 2. Aids the medulla in some functions; conducts information between the brain and spinal cord
- 3. Sorts and relays information to the cerebrum
- 4. Regulates breathing, heart rate, and digestion
- 5. Integrates sensory and motor information; is center for learning, emotion, memory, and perception
- 6. Produces hormones; functions in homeostatic regulation
- 7. Sends sensory information to the forebrain; is involved in hearing and visual reflexes

For each description write the appropriate region of the brain
1. Coordinates skeletal movements to produce smooth motion
2. Contains a structure that produces cerebrospinal fluid
3. Includes the thalamus, epithalamus, and hypothalamus
4. Secretes hormones and regulates non-intellectual functions such as emotions and sleep-wake cycles
5. Sorting and relay station for sensory information
6. Relays signals and keeps you "alert and alive"
Identify the parts of a neuron or a brain that correspond to the given functions
below. The parts are found inside the grid and loop these words either
horizontally, vertically, diagonally or inversely.
1. controls the growth of a nerve cell
2. carry impulses or messages toward the cell body
3. carry messages away from the cell body
4. serves as the body’s life support system
5. coordinates muscle movement
6. responsible for mental processes
7. controls breathing, heart rate and swallowing
8. controls the movement of the eye
9. regulates breathing and helps control eye movement
10. serves as a relay station for senses

- Watch this animation (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/braindevel) to examine the development of the brain, starting with the neural tube. As the anterior end of the neural tube develops, it enlarges into the primary vesicles that establish the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. Those structures continue to develop throughout the rest of embryonic development and into adolescence. They are the basis of the structure of the fully developed adult brain. How would you describe the difference in the relative sizes of the three regions of the brain when comparing the early (25th embryonic day) brain and the adult brain?arrow_forwardUnderstanding how your brain developed and what brain structures you share with other animals is crucial to understanding the bain and its functions.
