Ch 10, Part 2 Central Nervous System

(CNS)

Learning Objectives

1. Name the major regions of the adult brain and all related structures of importance.

2. Be able to state the functions of each brain structure.

It is not possible to tickle yourself. The cerebellum, a part of the brain, warns the rest of the brain that you are about to tickle yourself. Since your brain knows this, it ignores the resulting sensation.

The grooves on the brain are called sulci. The elevated ridges are gyri. Deeper grooves are fissures.

How Well Do You Know the Brain?

Once a human reaches the age of 35, he/she will start losing approximately 7,000 brain cells a day. The cells will never be replaced.

Getting Familiar with the Cerebral Hemispheres (“Conscious Mind”)

Brain hemispheres have 3 basic regions:

1. A superficial _______ of gray matter (which looks gray in fresh brain tissue).

2. An internal ________ matter.

3. Islands of gray matter ______ within the white matter.

Do you Know the Difference Between Gray and White Matter?

Here’s a tip:

What is gray matter? Contains just cell bodies and dendrites (no myelin)

What is white matter? Myelinated nerve fibers (those with fatty white protein coverings)

Cerebral hemispheres account for 83% of brain mass.

Page 7: Ch 10, Part 2 Central Nervous System (CNS) Learning Objectives 1.Name the major regions of the adult brain and all related structures of importance. 2.Be.

Cerebral Cortex continuedContains three kinds of functional areas:

1. _____ areas (control voluntary movement)

2. _______ areas (conscious awareness of sensations)

3. ________ areas (areas that give meaning to the information we receive, store it in memory if needed, tie it to previous knowledge, and decide what action to take)

Cerebral Hemisphere continued

• Each hemisphere is chiefly concerned with the sensory and motor functions of the ________ side of the body.

Over 80% of the brain is water.

Recognizes impulses as _______ or _______.

Helps coordinate _______ activities.

Important to ______________.
