General brain information:

The brain is made of cells called neurons.

Neurons fire action potentials down their axons to relay information to one another.


The brain is composed of white matter (axons) and grey matter (cell bodies).


The brain can be "split" into five regions: frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, and cerebellum.


The frontal lobe is located at the front of your head and is used for "decisions."


The parietal lobe is located at the top of your head where your brain controls your motor function.


The temporal lobe is located around your ears and is responsible for your hearing.


The occipital lobe is located on the back of your head and is responsible for your vision.


The cerebellum is located underneath the occipital lobe and is responsible for your sense of balance.
