functions
commissural fibers of the cerebrum interconnect the counterpart areas in each hemisphere, permitting the
coordination of activities between the hemispheres

fine repetitive movemnt
control of eye movement

partial lobe processes sensory data
interpretation of tactile sensations (temp., pressure, pain, size, shape, texture,
and two point discrimination)
recognition of body parts and awareness of body position (proprioception)
assist with: visional sensation, gustatory sensation, olfactory sensation, auditory
sensation
