1. Major Function: -Personality
-Behavior
Cerebral Cortex- -Emotions
Frontal Lobe -Intellectual Function
2. Major Function: Sensation
Cerebral Cortex-
Parietal Lobe
3. Major Function: Auditory Reception Center:
Cerebral Cortex- -Hearing
Temporal Lobe -Taste
-Smell
4. Major Function: Visual Receptor Center
Cerebral Cortex-
Occipital Lobe
5. Major Function: -Form the subcortical-associated system
Basal Ganglia -Help initiate/coordinate movement
-Control automatic associated movements of the body (ex: arms swinging when
walking)
6. Major Function: -Main relay station where the sensory pathways of the spinal cord, cerebellum,
basal ganglia, and brainstem form synapses on their way to the cerebral cortex
Thalamus
-Integration center w/ connections that are crucial to human emotion & creativity

Health Assessment: Neurological System (Jarvis)
Study online at https://quizlet.com/_2v3k58
Major Function: -Major respiratory center that controls basic vital functions:
Hypothalamus +Temp
+Appetite
+Sex Drive
+Heart Rate
+Blood Pressure
+Sleep Center
+Anterior/Posterior Pituitary Gland regulator
+Coordination of ANS activity & stress response
8. Major Function: -Motor coordination of:
Cerebellum +Voluntary Movements (ex: juggling, swimming, playing piano)
+Equilibrium
+Muscle Tone
-Adjusts/corrects voluntary movements but operates entirely under the conscious
level
9. Major Function: -Most ANTERIOR part of brainstem
Midbrain -Merges into the thalamus & hypothalamus
-Contains many motor neurons & tracts
10. Major Function: -Contains:
Pons +ASCENDING SENSORY tracts
+DESCENDING MOTOR tracts
