1. Brain Stem Regulates involuntary actions
2. Medulla Oblongata conects spinal cord to brain; cardiac, respiratory, vasomotor control center
3. Pons respiration control; links cerebrum and cerebellum
4. Midbrain auditory and visual reflex center, location where pain is registered
5. Cerebellum muscle coordination and integration
6. Superior peduncle carries efferent information to the mibrain and thalamus
7. Middle peduncle transmits info from cerebral cortex about desired position of body parts
8. Inferior peduncle brings sensory information concerning actual positions of body parts to cere-
bellum via spinal cord and medulla oblongata
9. Dentate nuclei the cerebellar nuclei of the lateral hemisphere involved in motor planning
10. Thalamus the structure of the brain that relays messages from the sense organs to the
cerebral cortex
11. Hypothalamus integrates involuntary response and links nerves and endocrine system
12. Parietal lobe provides sensations of temperature, touch, pressure and pain
13. Frontal lobe motor areas control movements of voluntary skeletal muscles
14. Temporal lobe sensory area responsible for hearing
15. Occipital lobe sensory area responsible for vision
16. Insula perception of bodily sensations, emotional states, empathy, and addictive be-
havior
17. separates right and left hemispheres
