ILO 1 - Revision

Lobe responsible for processing sensory information

Lobe associated with auditory processing, language comprehension, and memory

Lobe associated with higher functions e.g., decision making and problem solving

Lobe responsible for visual processing

Divides the left and right hemispheres

Divides the cerebrum from the cerebellum

Structure controlling posture, balance, and coordination

Region that contains the nuclei of cranial nerves III to XII (general)

Tract at the core of the midbrain

Structure on the upper part of the midbrain, involved in eye movements and visual processing

Structure of the upper part of the midbrain involved in auditory processing

Structure anterior to the superior colliculi, rich in DA neurons and part of the basal ganglia, crucial for motor movement

Structure containing tracts that run from the cerebrum down to the medulla and spinal cord, and tracts that travel up to the brain, also forms connections with the cerebellum via fibre bundles known as the cerebellar peduncles

Contains the dorsal horn (processes sensory input) and ventral horn (houses motor neurons)

In the spinal cord, composed of myelinated axons that form ascending (sensory) and descending (motor) tracts

How many pairs of spinal nerves are there?

Structure that contains the nucleus of the solitary tract, that is crucial for our survival
