What is the function of the medial longitudinal fissure?
Divides the brain in two equal hemispheres
What are some of the primary functions of the temporal lobe?
Hearing/Speech perception Sexual behaviour Visual perception Musical interpretation Memory Social Behaviour
What is the function of the precentral gyrus?
Primary Motor Cortex
What are the functions of the Cerebral Peduncles?
- Connect the Cerebellum to the midbrain & Medulla - Receive afferent inputs from touch, vision & hearing & vestibular system - Send this information to the Thalamus
Give the function of the indicated structure
Mammillary Bodies – implicated in emotion, sexual arousal and memory
What is the function of the corpus callosum?
Enables the trasfer of information from one cerebral hemisphere to the other
What is the function of the Septum Pellicidum?
Limbic structure involved in pleasure sensation. Ablation causes Septal Rage
