Card preview (11)
visual processing area of the brain. It is associated with visuospatial processing, distance and depth perception, color determination, object and face recognition, and memory formation
occipital lobe
lies between the occipital lobe and the central sulcus, a deep groove in the surface of the cortex. It processes your sense of touch and assembles input from your other senses into a form you can use
Parietal Lobe
is the lateral portion of each hemisphere, near the temples. primarily responsible for interpreting sounds from the ears and plays a significant role in recognizing and using language
Temporal Lobe
the primary motor cortex and the prefrontal cortex, extends from the central sulcus to the anterior limit of the brain. responsible for control over many abilities, including the way you think, how you move and how you remember things. It’s also a key part in your social skills, and helps you understand and control how you talk, behave and interact with others
frontal lobe
is specialized for the control of fine movements, such as moving a finger.
precentral gyrus
surgical disconnection of the prefrontal cortex from the rest of the brain.
