,### 1. This region of the brain acts to coordinate multiple
sources of sensory information.
a. primary sensory cortex
b. association area
c. motor cortex
d. cerebellum
Correct Answer: b. association area
Rationale:
Association areas process and integrate input from multiple sensory
modalities to produce perception and meaningful responses.

### 2. The _____ fissure separates the cerebrum from the
cerebellum.
a. longitudinal
b. central
c. transverse
d. lateral
Correct Answer: c. transverse
,Rationale:
The transverse fissure is the deep groove separating the large cerebral
hemispheres from the smaller cerebellum below it.

### 3. Describe the function of the brain ventricles.
Answer:
There are four ventricles in the interior of the brain, chambers filled with
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) which is produced there. Once formed, the CSF
circulates through the ventricles and into the subarachnoid space, bathing
and floating the brain.
Rationale:
Ventricles house and circulate CSF, which cushions the brain, removes
waste, and provides essential nutrients.
, ### 4. Label the following spinal cord regions in the diagram
below:
1- white matter/ posterior column
5- anterior median fissure
6- gray matter- posterior horn
9- dorsal root
11- dorsal root ganglion
