A neural structure lying below the thalamus; it directs several maintenance activities (eating, drinking, body temperature), helps govern the endocrine system via the pituitary gland, and is linked to emotion and reward.

  • Pons
  • Thalamus
  • Hypothalamus
  • Cerebellum
controls language expression-area of the frontal lobe in left hemisphere that directs muscle movements invloved in speech

  • Temporal lobe
  • Wernicke's area (temporal lobe)
  • Broca's area (frontal lobe)
  • Pons
Located in the upper back half of the brain. Receives and processes sensory information from the body and skin senses as well as other sensory areas in the brain. Association areas are invovled with spatial reasoning and sensing the position of the body in space.

  • Spinal cord
  • Thalamus
  • Cerebellum
  • Medulla
A thick band of axons that connects the two cerebral hemispheres and acts as a communication link between them.
