BIOD 152 MODULE 2
1. located in the frontal lobe, responsible for speech production
Answer: broca's area
2. located in temporal lobe, responsible for speech comprehension
Answer: wernicke's area
3. midbrain, pons, medulla oblongata
Answer: 3 major parts of the brainstem
4. contains several vital centers for regulating heartbeat, breathing and vasoconstricting.
Answer: medulla oblongata
5. contains bundles of axons traveling between the cerebellum and rest of CNS. has reflex
centers concerned with head movements in response to visualand auditory stimuli.
Answer: pons
6. relay station for tracts passing between the cerebrum and spinal cord or cerebellum. has
reflex centers for higher-level reflexes involving visual,auditory, and tactile responses
Answer: midbrain
7. posterior portion of midbrain. controls reflexes for the head and neck inresponse to a
sudden visual or auditory stimulus.
Answer: superior + inferior colliculi
8. contains the hypothalamus, thalamus, and epithalamus
Answer: diancephelon
9. forms the floor of the third ventricle, maintains homeostasis. controls the pituitary gland
that regulates body hormones of the endocrine system
Answer: hypo-thalamus
10. roof of the third ventricle, last portion of the brain for sensory input before the cerebrum.
receives all sensory impulses (except smell), filters outunimportant sensory information, and
directs it to the appropriate regions ofcerebrum for interpretation
Answer: thalamus
11. forms the roof of the third ventricle and is mostly comprised of the pinealgland
Answer: epithalamus
12. secretes melatonin
Answer: pineal gland
13. located inferiorly and posteriorly to the brain, convoluted and divided intotwo
, hemispheres with deep fissures subdividing it into 3 lobes. coordinates body movement, plans
movement, maintains balance, controls certain eye movement.
Answer: cerebellum
14. receives information from the body trunk and influence the motor activitiesof the trunk,
shoulder, and pectoral girdle muscles
Answer: anterior + posterior lobes
15. intermediate portion that coordinates limb movement
Answer: vermis
16. anterior portion of cerebellum, connects cerebellum to the parts of thebrain
Answer: cerebellar penduncles
17. involves portions of both the unconscious and conscious brain. connectsportions of the
frontal lobes, temporal lobes, thalamus, and hypothalamus
Answer: -limbic system
18. (limbic lobe) located deep to the cerebrum, connects the different lobes ofthe cerebrum
Answer: cingulate gyrus
19. involved in the retrieval and storage of memories
Answer: hippocampus
20. emotions such as rage and anger
Answer: amygdala
21. bundle of nerve fibers, a connection to the hippocampus
Answer: fornix
22. contains fibers that project into the thalamus and assist with the memoryof smell
Answer: mamillary bodies
23. stimulation of different areas of the limbic system causes rage, pain,pleasure, or sorrow
Answer: why is limbic system called our "feeling brain"
24. cerebrum, brainstem, diancephelon, cerebellum
Answer: brain divisions
25. cavities within the brain filled with CSF
Answer: ventricles
26. 2 lateral, 3rd, 4th drains into central canal of the spinal cord
