Cerebrum: Ext Object
Question | Answer |
---|---|
cerebrum: cortex - motor areas | planning, initiating voluntary movement |
cerebrum: cortex - primary sensory cortices | initial sites for processing sensory experiences at the conscious level |
cerebrum: cortex - association areas | bring together info from other regions to create complex interpretations, formulate complex action plans |
frontal lobe | voluntary motor areas, prefrontal cortex deals with executive functions, Broca's area is on the left side mostly and is associated with language production |
parietal lobe | conscious somatosensory areas, spatial awareness, and Werkinkes area (also left) and is associated with language comprehension (understanding) |
temporal lobe | also Wernikes area, sensory areas - hearing and vision, memory - the hippocampus (still on surface of brain) |
occipital lobe | vision |
insult | part of the FRONTAL lobe, needs a special dissection, receives info about physiologic states and sensory stimuli, seems to generate subjective feelings about body state, involved in motivational states, decision making |
basis of Brodmann's areas | based on cytoarchitecture, how cells are arranged, different areas because they have different functions |
what is the functional relationship between primary sensory areas, modality specific association areas, and multimodal association areas | simple to complex, from sensing to understanding the sensation or environment |
primary sensory areas | beginning of conscious awareness |
modality specific association areas | more complex aspects of sensation - interpretation |
multimodal association areas | the meaning of sensory experience, takes from multiple places of information |
What is the functional relationship of the primary motor area, premotor & supplementary motor regions, and prefrontal cortex.? | it is a hierarchy, steps for conscious movement - thinking to action, Goes from complex to simple |
primary motor area | action of motor movement |
premotor & supplementary motor regions | motor plan |
prefrontal cortex | motivation/idea |
3, 1, 2 | SOMATOSENSORY cortex, post central gyrus |
4 | primary MOTOR cortex, precentral gyrus |
6 & 8 | premotor & supplementary MOTOR cortices, posterior side of the 3 frontal gyri & middle portion of the superior and middle frontal gyri |
17 | primary VISUAL cortex, bank of calcalrine sulcus (divides cuneus and lingual gyri), in and around the calcirine fissure |
18 & 19 | VISUAL association cortices, cuneus and lingual gyrus |
39 & 40 (+ posterior 22) | Wernicke’s area (language comprehension), superior temporal gyrus, supra marginal gyrus, angular gyrus |
41 & 42 | primary AUDITORY cortex, anterior transverse temporal gyrus, in the bank of the lateral sulcus |
44 & 45 | Broca’s area (speech production), pars triangular, pars opercularis |
