In which is the cerebral lobes would the primary motor area be found?
The primary motor area is found in the frontal lobe of the brain.
Which portion of the cerebral cortex is most directly involved in making plans and formulating moral judgments?
frontal lobes
What forms the anterior portion of the midbrain?
Cerebral peduncle
What is the portion of the brain that contains cerebral peduncles?
The Midbrain
What is the location of the frontal lobe of the brain?
The frontal lobe is an area in the brain of humans and other mammals, located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned anterior to (in front of) the parietal lobe and superior and anterior to the temporal lobes. It is separated from the parietal lobe by a space between tissues called the central sulcus, and from the temporal lobe by a deep fold called the lateral (Sylvian) sulcus. The post-central gyrus, forming the posterior border of the frontal lobe, contains the primary motor cortex, which controls voluntary movements of specific body parts.
In which is the cerebral lobes would the primary motor area be found?
The primary motor area is found in the frontal lobe of the brain.
Which portion of the cerebral cortex is most directly involved in making plans and formulating moral judgments?
frontal lobes
What central lobe of the brain is the primary motor cortex?
The somatic motor cortex is located in the human brain. It can be found in the posterior portion of the frontal lobe.
Where is the gustatory cortex is located?
Anterior portion of the insula and the adjacent portions of the frontal lobe.
What cerebral lobe is the auditory cortex?
The visual cortex is located in the occipital lobe. The frontal lobe houses intellect, emotions, behavior and personality, and the parietal lobe houses sensation.
Where is the somatic motor cortex?
The somatic motor cortex is located in the human brain. It can be found in the posterior portion of the frontal lobe.
Which portion of a long bone is located nearest to the midline?
proximal epiphysis
What parts of the brain controls hearing and speech?
The left frontal lobe, or more specifically, the Broca's area, named after Paul Broca who is mainly credited for the discovery (Though a Marc Dax put forth the theory 25 years before). The Broca's area is a small portion of the bottom of the left frontal lobe.
Are the frontal lobes and frontal cortex the same?
The Cerebrum is the largest part of the brain consisting of the four lobes of the brain. These are the parietal lobe, occipital lobe, frontal lobe, and the temporal lobe. Each lobe carries many different responsibilities. A few of these are as follows: Frontal lobe- reasoning, planning, emotions, speech, and movements. Temporal Lobe- memory, speach, auditory stimuli, and perception and recognition. The parietal lobe-orientation, recognition, stimuli. The Occipital Lobe-visual processing. The Cerebral Cortex is the material filling the grooves seen in brain images. It is responsible for many different senses such as memory, attention, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness. Alot of the movements associated with the cerebral cortex are voluntary, but not all are.
What is the medical term meaning surgical removal of the cerebral gyrus or of a portion of the cerebral cortex?
Gyrectomy
What forms the anterior portion of the midbrain?
Cerebral peduncle
What is the portion of the brain that contains cerebral peduncles?
The Midbrain
