If each of the following brain parts individually was damaged‚ what would be the consequence and why? Hippocampus‚ hypothalamus‚ cerebellum‚ reticular formation‚ medulla Hippocampus is important for forming lasting memories. The hippocampus lies inside the temporal lobes‚ which is why stimulating the temporal lobes can produce memory like or dream like experiences. Hippocampus damage can result in anterograde amnesia which is the loss of ability to form new memories. Someone who sustains an

Neurotransmitter – They are brain chemicals that communicate throughout the body. Amygdala – It is located in the cerebral hemisphere that looks like a grey almond shape‚ it controls the emotions we have from hormones‚ arousal and emotional memories. Hippocampus – This is in the medial temporal lobe it’s a small organ and is very important to the limbic system‚ it is what helps with our long term memory. Corpus Callosum – Located in the middle of the brain the corpus callosum is a big ball

The brain The brain is the most complex organ in the body. It is the organ that allows us to think‚ have emotions‚ move‚ and dream. Given this complication‚ it should not be surprising that there are many ways to separate brain parts. Brain parts can be separated on the basis of what they look like to the bare eye‚ under a microscope‚ or by what certain brain parts do. The brain and spinal cord make up the central nervous system and all of the nerves found in our body make up the peripheral nervous

The Brain The central core of the human brain‚ often referred to as the “old brain”‚ is the most primitive part of the brain and can be found in all vertebrates dating back more than 500 million years. The central core is designed to help the human body with basic survival functions such as breathing‚ heartbeat‚ movement‚ balance‚ and sleep. Without the central core‚ the brain would not be able to do major task like telling our hearts to beat and how fast. The central core of the human brain

The Brain Brainstem The brain stem plays an important role in basic attention‚ arousal‚ and consciousness. It contains the medulla oblongata‚ cerebellum‚ midbrain and pons. Its functions include things that you need to survive‚ such as breathing‚ digestion‚ heart rate‚ blood pressure‚ and arousal which makes you awake and alert.All information from our body passes through the brain stem on the way to the brain. Medulla Oblangata The medulla oblongata connects the brain and spinal cord.

Left brain learning People who like to use the skills attributed to the left part of their brain are mostly logical thinkers who tend to be patient‚ methodical and plan carefully. They generally do not get carried away by impulsive ideas but prefer to work out what they have to learn by breaking things down into fairly small structured steps. They like to see a job through from the beginning to the end. They are usually good at keeping to deadlines and have well developed organisational skills.

Analysis‚ linear thinking‚ order‚ and the need for structure‚ take place in the left brain. Problems are solved by looking at the parts and sequence is critical. We try to make sense of the world with our left brains. When thoughts are made consciously‚ the left brain is in control. What

Anatomy and PhysiologyHuman Brain The anatomy of the brain is complex due its intricate structure and function. Thisamazing organ acts as a control center by receiving‚ interpreting‚ and directing sensoryinformation throughout the body. There are three major divisions of the brain. They arethe forebrain‚ the midbrain‚ and the hindbrain.
