🗑
Broca's area function   show
🗑
show -can't move on opposite side-there is impaired judgement in appropriate behavior, use bad language, and changes in personality-apathy (cant relate to others)- Broca's aphasia

🗑
what happens if there is a lesion in the parietal lobe?   show
🗑
show -posterior boundry is the occipital lobe-anterior boundry is the lateral fissure  
🗑
show -primary auditory cotex-language dominant association cortex-non-language dominant association cortex-function: important for learning and memory, some visual stimuli is processed here, but not most important place for vision  
🗑
primary auditory cortex function   show
🗑
language dominant association cortex function   show
🗑
non-langague dominant association cortex function   show
🗑
show -loss of attention to auditory info-memory loss-Wernicke's or receptive apahsia-seizures-some vision problems  
🗑
show -the pre-occipital nothc divides it from the occipital from the parietal lobe-the anterior division is the parietal occipital sulcus  
🗑
show primary and secondary cotex where the main process is for visual stimuli  
🗑
what can occur if there is damage to the occipital lobe?   show
🗑
Where is the insula?   show
🗑
what are the 3 main areas of the insula?   show
🗑
show responsible for taste, hels with association btwn taste and smell, taste and memory  
🗑
show the center for pain, links painful events with emotions or behavior  
🗑
central region funciton   show
🗑
Where are addictions seen?   show
🗑
What occurs if there is a lesion in the insula?   show
🗑
show -cingulate cortex-parahippocampal gyrus and uncus-hippocampus-funciton: links raw emotion to long term memory  
🗑
show helps with decisoin making in response to sensory data. emotional tone, bladder contol, and emotional vocalization  
🗑
parahippocampal gyrus and uncus function   show
🗑
show long term memory storage  
🗑
show -hyperorality, bizzare eating and drinking habits, sexual behavior, and personality changes-loose of newly acquired memory, also called antereograde amnesia-spatial problem solving-can't control emotions  
🗑
show -inhibits unwanted movement, hibits wanted movement, helps maintain muscle tone and motor steadiness, stores learned repetative motion, and regulates amplitude, velocity, and initiation of movement  
🗑
What can happen if there is a lesion in the basal ganglia?   show
🗑
What are the 4 areas of the diencephalon   show
🗑
show the back (the gluteus maximus is dorsal to the ambillicus)  
🗑
show above others "head"  
🗑
caudal   show
🗑
show to connect the 2 sides of the thalamus  
🗑
What are the main functions of the thalamus?   show
🗑
show -localization of sensory info is not correct, cortically blind and cant process pictures, not able to determine the intensity of pain  
🗑
show this is functinally part of the basal ganglia but is anatomically in the diencephalon  
🗑
What happens if there is a lesion to the subthalamus?   show
🗑
