    Lesson 10 Brain Parts, Processes and Functions

    Uploaded by

    Alfredo Modesto
    The document discusses the parts, processes, and functions of the human brain. It describes the three main regions of the brain - the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The forebrain includes the cerebrum, thalamus, hypothalamus, and limbic system. The cerebrum regulates senses, memory, emotions, and movement. It is divided into four lobes - the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes. The midbrain is responsible for motor movements and processing vision and sound. The brainstem connects the brain to the spinal cord and regulates vital functions like breathing and heart rate.

    Brain: Parts,

    Processes and
    Functions
    Which likely describes you more?
    Directions: Write words related to distress and de-
    stress inside the cloud. Reflect on how it affects your
    daily life.
    Before going through the rest of the
    lesson, take time to relax. Close your
    eyes and take a deep breath. Inhale
    through your nose and exhale through
    your mouth. Inhale. Exhale. Do this
    exercise in eight intervals, then slowly
    breathe normally.
    Breathing is one of the survival
    functions of the brain. Proper breathing
    helps your brain to regulate your
    thoughts, feelings, and behavior for you
    to become thoughtful, tactful, sensitive,
    compassionate, and respectful.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Brain is one of the most complex organs in the human


    body, which is part of the central nervous system,
    including the spinal cord. Brain has three main regions
    – the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The Forebrain
    is located in the uppermost region of the brain. It
    includes the cerebrum, thalamus, hypothalamus, and
    the limbic system. Cerebrum is the largest part of the
    brain covered by the cerebral cortex.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Cerebrum regulates senses, memory, emotions,


    intellectual activities, and body movement, while
    the Cerebral Cortex is responsible for processing
    information that is divided into two hemispheres:
    the right cerebral hemisphere controls the left
    side of the body while the left cerebral
    hemisphere controls the right side of the body.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Each cerebral hemisphere contains four


    lobes that shares complex relationships
    together to function. These are the Frontal
    Lobe, Parietal Lobe, Temporal Lobe, and
    Occipital Lobe.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Frontal Lobe is situated


    at the front part of the
    brain which controls
    memory, emotion,
    stress response,
    speech, decision
    making, and planning.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Parietal lobe is situated


    near the back of the
    frontal lobe which
    regulates sensory
    perception.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Temporal Lobe is
    located at the side of
    the head which
    regulates memory,
    hearing, and
    comprehension.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Occipital Lobe is
    situated at the back of
    the head which
    regulates sight.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Thalamus is connected
    to the cerebral cortex
    that sends, receives,
    and organize
    information.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Hypothalamus is located
    below the thalamus and
    above the brainstem which
    links the nervous system
    with the endocrine system
    that regulates digestive
    process and is also
    responsible for growth and
    development.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Limbic System composes


    parts of cerebral cortex
    and hypothalamus which
    regulates various types of
    emotions that affect blood
    temperature and blood
    pressure facilitated by the
    hypothalamus.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    The Midbrain is located


    between the forebrain and
    hindbrain It is responsible
    for motor movements
    particularly the visual and
    auditory processing.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Brainstem is located at the lower part


    of the brain which leads to spinal cord.
    The brainstem connects the cerebrum
    and cerebellum to the spinal cord. It
    composes nerve fibers that carry
    signals to and from all parts of the
    body. Basically, its functions are for
    safety and survival as it regulates
    breathing, consciousness, heart rate,
    body temperature, blood pressure,
    digestion, and wake and sleep cycles.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    This is a partial view of how brain works for


    you. Again, cerebrum and cortex have
    something to do with your ability to think. The
    limbic system has something to do with your
    feelings, while the brainstem has something to
    do with your behaving safely to survive. These
    are all important for personal development.
    Understanding the Brain Parts, its Processes, and its Functions

    Brain makes you think, feel, and behave. Its


    complex interrelationship enables you to think
    critically, creatively, and carefully in various
    situations. Those experiences you gain develop
    certain reactions towards yourself and with
    others which determine who you are as a person
    having the right and acceptable thought process,
    feeling, and perception.
