The islands of gray matter inside the hemisphere of the cerebrum are known as the cerebral cortex?
The few islands of gray matter within the interior of the cerebrum are made up of neuron cell bodies and unmyelinated axons. These areas of gray matter act as the central processing unit of the brain. Many things can affect this gray matter, such as, smoking, child abuse, alcoholism, and drugs.
What is nucleus Z?
located in the medulla oblongata of the brainstem as an area of grey matter that will link the somatosensory info coming in from the spinal cord with the motor areas of the thalamus ( ventral lateral part) using whit matter fiber tracts.
What are the areas within the cerebrum named for the bones that lie beneath?
lobes
What part of brain is responsible for voluntary movement?
The largest part of the brain, the cerebrum initiates and coordinates movement and regulates temperature. Other areas of the cerebrum enable speech, judgment, thinking and reasoning, problem-solving, emotions and learning. Other functions relate to vision, hearing, touch and other senses.
What does a cerebrum do?
The cerebrum is the upper portion of the brain that is most developed in human beings. Its main job is to process sensory input and provide an appropriate behavioral response that is conducive to survival or reproduction.
What are the three types of fibers that can be found in the white matter of cerebrum?
association fibres = connect the different cortical areas in the same hemispherecommisural fibres = connect one part of the CNS on one side with the same part on the opposite sideprojection fibres = connect the cerebral cortex with lower centres
Where in the brain is the hypothalamus?
The hypothalamus is a small part of the brain located just below the thalamus on both sides of the third ventricle. (The ventricles are areas within the cerebrum that are filled with cerebrospinal fluid, and connect to the fluid in the spine.) It sits just inside the two tracts of the optic nerve, and just above (and intimately connected with) the pituitary gland.
What Part of the brain that controls sensory receptors and interprets language?
Your memory is controlled by the cerebrum. and the frontal and temporal lobes are the main areas of speech and language.

What part of your brain process information?
The CEREBRUM, it is the largest region of the brain, it contains motor, sensory, and association areas.
What are the areas within the cerebrum named for the bones that lie beneath?
lobes
What functional areas of the cerebrum is responsible for conscious movements the body?
Primary motor area.
What are the functional differences between the cerebellum and cerebrum?
The differences between cerebrum and cerebellum are: Cerebrum has sensory areas that interpret sensory activities, association areas that are concerned with emotional and intellectual processes like will, judgement, memory etc. It controls all voluntary activities. Cerebellum coordinates muscular activities and maintains body posture and balance.
What are the three main areas of the brain?
Hi, The three main parts of the brain are the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the brain stem. The cerebrum is the largest part and is the cite of thinking, memory, and interpreting senses. The cerebellum is at the back and controls coordination and balance. The brain stem is used to connect the brain to the body through the Spinal Cord. It also controls involuntary actions. Hope this has answered your question
What lobe of cerebrum contains the primary visual areas that interpret what a person sees?
The occipital lobe contains the primary visual areas that interpret what a person sees.
Which part of cerebrum process information related to touch andpain?
Brodmann Areas 3, 1 & 2 - Primary Somatosensory Cortex
