a crucial part of the hindbrain, located at the back of the head, that coordinates voluntary movements, maintains balance, posture, muscle tone, and enables motor learning

the structure that connects the cerebrum of the brain to the spinal cord and cerebellum

a part of your brainstem, a structure that links your brain to your spinal cord

he bottom-most part of your brain

a brain region that processes sensory information like touch, pain, and temperature, helps you understand your body's position in space, and plays a role in numerical and mathematical abilities

the brain's visual processing center, located at the very back, responsible for interpreting images from your eyes, enabling you to see colors, depth, motion, and recognize objects by connecting visual input with stored memories.

the brain's front-most part, controlling higher thinking like planning, decision-making, personality, and voluntary movement

a brain area by your temples crucial for hearing, memory, and language, processing sounds, forming memories, and understanding speech, while also handling emotions and visual recognition like faces.

the brain's command center in the frontal lobe, responsible for planning and initiating voluntary movements by sending electrical signals to muscles, coordinating complex actions, and controlling the force and direction of movements

the brain's region that receives, processes, and interprets sensory information (touch, pain, temperature, pressure) from the body

a thick band of nerve fibers connecting the brain's left and right hemispheres

a tiny, pea-sized gland at the base of the brain, often called the "master gland," that makes hormones controlling many essential body functions like growth, metabolism, and reproduction, by receiving signals from the hypothalamus and directing other glan

a crucial brain structure acting as a central relay station, filtering and routing most sensory (sight, sound, touch, taste) and motor signals between the body, spinal cord, and the cerebral cortex (the brain's outer layer), playing key roles in conscious

Brain stem	the structure that connects the cerebrum of the brain to the spinal cord and cerebellum
Pons	a part of your brainstem, a structure that links your brain to your spinal cord
Medulla oblongata	he bottom-most part of your brain
Parietal lobe	a brain region that processes sensory information like touch, pain, and temperature, helps you understand your body's position in space, and plays a role in numerical and mathematical abilities
Occipital lobe	the brain's visual processing center, located at the very back, responsible for interpreting images from your eyes, enabling you to see colors, depth, motion, and recognize objects by connecting visual input with stored memories.
Frontal lobe	the brain's front-most part, controlling higher thinking like planning, decision-making, personality, and voluntary movement
Temporal lobe	a brain area by your temples crucial for hearing, memory, and language, processing sounds, forming memories, and understanding speech, while also handling emotions and visual recognition like faces.
Motor cortex	the brain's command center in the frontal lobe, responsible for planning and initiating voluntary movements by sending electrical signals to muscles, coordinating complex actions, and controlling the force and direction of movements
