PDF-Chapter 14The Cerebral Cortex

Cerebrum Gross Anatomy. THE HINDBRAIN. Medulla attaches to spinal cord; circulation, breathing, reflexes, muscle tone. Pons, “bridge”, connects brainstem to cerebellum; sleep, arousal. Cerebellum, “little brain”, coordination, equilibrium, organizes sensory info.. -. The largest division of the brain. It is divided into two hemispheres, each of which is divided into four lobes..

Describe how the hemispheres of the brain function. Name and describe the purpose of each of the parts of the lower brain. How is the brain organized?. Define the major lobes. Distinguish between gyri and sulci. Compare the functional areas of the cerebral cortex. The cerebrum is divided into three major areas: . Cerebral Cortex. Neocortex. Allocortex.

In 1848 in Vermont, had a 3.5-foot-long, 13 lb. metal rod blown into his skull, through his brain, and out of the top of his head. Gage survived. In fact, he never even lost consciousness..
