The cerebrum -Practice

The corpus callosum is the outer most layer of the cerebrum

False

Identifiable part of the brain girls primarily with memory and learning and explain the process by which we use memory to help us learn

Cerebrum

The_________ is a thick band of axon fibers that connects the two hemispheres of the brain

Corpus callosum

Define mirror neurons briefly explain how they were discovered and want researcher have linked to them

Mirror neurons are triggered upon performing an action or observing another perform an action associated with the development of motor and social functions

Visual processing begins in the primary visual cortex located in the ___________ lobe

Occipital

Located in front of the occipital lobe the ___________ lobe contains the primary somatosensory cortex

Parietal

Stimulation of the primary _____________ cortex results in the sensations similar to that of been touched on a part of one's body

Somatosensory

Identify the primary cortex associated with each of the lobes in the cerebral cortex and explain the function of each

The primary cortex associated with the occipital lobe is the primary visual cortex, which is mainly responsible for processing visual information. The parietal lobe contains the primary somatosensory cortex and is mainly responsible for registering sensory input. The temporal lobe houses the primary auditory cortex and is primarily responsible for receiving and processing auditory information. The frontal lobe contains the primary motor cortex, which is responsible for controlling muscle movement.

The primary __________ cortex contains a map of the body-based not on the size of body parts but on the complexity and precision of movement in the body parts

motor

The brain lobe associated most with processing visual information is the __________ lobe.

occipital
