The brain‚ unlike the heart is the most important part of the body‚ it weighs up to three pounds and comprises the hefty cerebrum‚ cerebellum‚ and the brainstem. The cerebrum which is the largest portion performs all higher cognitive functions. The cerebellum is responsible for motor functions‚ such as the coordination of movement and balance. The brain stem is dedicated to involuntary functions such as breathing. The brain is comprised of the cerebrum‚ cerebellum‚ and brain stem The largest part

evolution of the unique characteristics of the human brain requires studying the brain of other living primate species. In other words‚ a specific evolutionary change in the human brain cannot be inferred to be unique to the human lineage unless other species sharing a last common ancestor don’t have it. That being said‚ Rilling emphasizes the role of comparative neuroimaging to investigate the similarities and differences between human and non-human primate brains‚ and highlights the different imaging techniques

Task 1: Understand the relationship between organizational structure and culture. P1.1: Compare and contrast different organisational structure and culture. According to Buchanan and Huczynski‚ an organisation is a ‘social arrangement for the controlled performance of collective goals’.

There are three major brain divisions. They are the cerebrum‚ the brainstem‚ and the cerebellum. The cerebrum contains 40% of the weight of the brain and is founded in the superior part of the brain. This portion of the brain has many functions and lobes which perform certain functions. The frontal lobe is involved with “activating and controlling both fine and complex motor activities.” This involves speech. It is also involved with the executive functions‚ such as reasoning and rationalizing‚ among

The Five Major Structures of the Brain The brain is an amazing structure. It is the most complex and interesting part of the human body. It is like a huge computer that runs every function of the body. The brain is made up of the five major structures that include: the myelencephalon‚ metencephalon‚ mesencephalon‚ deicephalon‚ and the telencephalon. Each of these structures also has substructures involved within them. You start learning how to do things when you are born and keep learning as
