The effect on the person causes the person to have double vision or blurred vision. The Cerebellum controls the movement of the body. If the glioblastoma develops in this area the person will have trouble walking and will become very weak. The Motor Cortex also controls the movement and stops the person from being active.

because of lack of inexperience in life. Adolescent brains are not fully developed until at least the age of 20. They lack the prefrontal cortex‚ the lobe of the brain that helps with reasoning and judgment. Teens also do not have a fully developed cerebellum‚ the area of the brain that helps control impulse. Without these two physical characteristics that separate the men from the boys‚ teenagers can not possibly be expected to endure the same consequence as fully matured adults. Research shows

The legal drinking age has been a controversial topic for the past few decades. Many may argue that the drinking age should be lowered to 18 since you are already treated and considered like an adult by that age.

After sound reaches the eardrum‚ it sets into motion of a complex combination of mechanical‚ chemical‚ and neural events in the cochlea‚ brain stem‚ midbrain nuclei‚ and cortex that result in a percept. The cerebellum plays a role in remembering the “settings” that can be used for synchronizing to music as people hear it‚ and it can recall these “settings” when people need it. The basal ganglia are the most important organ as it receives rhythm‚ tempo‚ and meter

Chapter 48 Nervous Systems Lecture Outline Overview: Command and Control Center The human brain contains an estimated 1011 (100 billion) neurons. Each neuron may communicate with thousands of other neurons in complex information-processing circuits. Recently developed technologies can record brain activity from outside the skull. One technique is functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)‚ which reconstructs a 3-D map of the subject’s brain activity. The results of brain imaging and other

For example: * Visual: Orientation is given by the occipital and parietal lobes. * Aural: The temporal lobes handle aural part and influences music. * Verbal: Broca’s and Wernick’s area. * Physical: The cerebellum and the motor cortex * Logical: The parietal lobes * Social: The frontal and temporal lobes and the limbic system also influence both the social and solitary styles. The limbic system influences emotions‚ moods and aggression. *
