nervous system

cerebral dominance

This hemisphere is for visual-spatial skills, intuition, emotion, and artistic and muscial skills.

This hemishphere is for control of language, math, and logic

hemispheres communicate almost__________ via________and functional integration.

hemispheres are almost identical when?

these fibers horizontal, connect different parts of same hemisphere

these fibers are horizontal, connect gray matter of two hemispheres

these fibers are vertical , connect hemispheres with lower brain or spinal cord

what are the three parts of the diencephalon

what is 80% of the diencephalon?

this is the gateway to the cerebral cortex

this sort edits and relays ascending imput which includes impulses from hypothalamus for regulation of emotion and visceral funtion
impulses form cerebellum and basal nuclei to help direct motor cortices
impulses form memory or sensory integration
mediates sensation, motor activietes cortical arousal, learning and memory

This deals with temp. and controls endoctrine system

controls autonomic nervous system - blood pressure, rate and force of heartbeat, digestive tract motilit, pupil size
has to do with perception of pleasure, rage, fear and biological rhythms and drives

This regulates body temperature - sweating/shivering

this regulates hunger and satiety in response to nutrient blood levels or hormones

this regulates water balance and thirst

regulates sleep-wake cycles and controls endocrine system

suprachiasmatic nucleus

controls secretions of anterior pituitary gland and produces posterior pititary hormones

makes melatonine which helps regulated wake and sleep cycles

pineal gland body extends from the posterior border of this and secretes melatonin

this hormone helps regulate wake and sleep cycles and is produced by what

what is the three regions of the brain stem

this controls the automatic behaviors necessary for survival

this has nuclei associated with 10 of the 12 pairs of crainal nerves

in the midbrain the cerebral penduncles ventrally what?

cerebral aqueduct what?

Which ventrical seperates the pons and the cerebellum

the fibers of this connects the higher brain centers and spinal cord and relay impulses between motor cortex and cerebellum

in this you have the origin of the cranial nerves V, VI, VII

In this you have the orgins of the craial neves VIII, IX, X, XII

This controls the Cardiovascular center

These are part of what - Cardiac center_Vasomotor center

This adjusts the force and rate of heart contraction

This adjusts blood vessel diameter for blood pressure regulation

This controls the Respiratory centers

This generate respiratory rhythm and controls rate and depth of breathing with pontin centers

vomiting
hiccuping
swallowing
coughing
sneezing

deals with input from cortex, brain stem and sensory receptors and allows, smooth, coordinated movements

treelike patteren of cerebellar white matter

all fibers in cerebellum are ipsillateral

Role in thinking, language, and emotion. May compare actual with expected output and adjust accordingly
