CENTRAL NERVOUS
SYSTEM (CNS)

Start with the lobes of the brain!

Frontal Lobe

Location: Front most region of cerebral cortex

Function: Responsible for personality,
planning, judgment, memory

bv

Parietal Lobe

Location: Upper back region of cerebral

cortex
Function: Responsible for processing
sensory information that had to do with
taste, temperature, and touch

Temporal Lobe

Location: Bottom middle part of cortex,

right behind the temples
Function: Responsible
for processing auditory information from
the ears (hearing)

Occipital lobe

Location: Bottom, back part of the cortex

Function: Responsible for processing
visual information from the eyes

Cerebellum

Location: Lower area of the brain,

below the pons
Function: Responsible for balance
and coordination of muscles and the
body

Each Lobe has gyri and sulcus

Location: All over brain

Function: Increase surface area

Brainstem

Midbrain

Location: Middle of brain

Function: Influences motor function

Pons
Location: Area of the hindbrain that sits directly above

the medulla
Function: Connects upper and lower parts of the brain

Medulla
Location: Lower part of the brain stem
Function: Carries out and regulates life sustaining functions

such as breathing, swallowing and heart rate

Corpus Callosum

Location: Above the Thalamus, under

the cortex
Function: Connects the right and left
hemispheres of the brain

Thalamus

Location: Part of the forebrain, below

the corpus callosum
Function: Responsible for relaying
information from the sensory receptors
to proper areas of the brain where it can
be processed

Hypothalamus

Location: Above the pituitary gland and

below the thalamus
Function: Responsible for behaviors
such as hunger and thirst, as well as
the maintenance of body temperature

Hippocampus

Location: Part of the Limbic system, in

each temporal lobe
Function: Responsible for processing
of long term memory and emotional
responses

Pituitary gland

Location: base of brain

Function: Control of the majority of
hormones

Spinal Cord

Location: vertebral column

Function: Share messages
from the brain to the body
and reverse
