CH 4
Across
- 4. cerebrum
- 9. condition of abnormal impulse toward
- 12. anterior section of each cerebral hemisphere; responsible for voluntary muscle movement and personality
- 16. largest portion of the brain; divided into right and left halves, known as cerebral hemispheres, which are connected by a bridge a nerve fibers called the corpus callosum
- 17. inability to locate a sensation properly, such as inability to locate a point touched on the body
- 19. entire brain
- 20. carry or bear
- 22. any of many types of loss of neurologic function involving interpretation of sensory information
- 25. shallow groves that separate gyri
- 26. portion of the central nervous system contained within the cranium
- 28. a preoccupation with thoughts of disease and concern that one is suffering from a serious condition that persists despite medical reassurance to the contrary
- 30. weakness
Down
- 1. portion of the brain located between below the occipital lobes of the cerebrum; responsible for control and coordination of skeletal muscles
- 2. area deep within the brain that contains the thalamus and hypothalamus and is the link between the cerebral hemispheres and the brain-stem; responsible for directing sensory information to the cortex
- 3. convulsions (mounds) of the cerebral hemispheres
- 5. an impairment of intellectual function characterized by memory loss, disorientation, and confusion (dementio= to be mad)
- 6. cerebellum
- 7. increased sensitivity to stimulation such as touch or pain
- 8. ganglion, knot
- 10. portion posterior to the frontal lobe; responsible for sensations such as pain, temperature, and touch
- 11. spinal cord, bone marrow
- 13. body
- 14. meninges
- 15. impairment of speech production and inability to arrange words in an understandable way.
- 18. portion that lies below the frontal lobe; responsible for hearing, taste and smell
- 21. ___ nervous sytem, nerves that branch from the central nervous system including nerves of the brain (cranial nerves) and spinal cord (spinal nerves)
- 23. portion posterior to the parietal and temporal lobes; responsible for vision
- 24. region of the brain that serves as a relay between the cerebrum, cerebellum and spinal cord; responsible for breathing, heart rate, and body temperature; the three levels are mesencephalon (midbrain), pons, and medulla oblongata
- 27. ____ nervous system, nerves that carry involuntary impulses to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and various glands
- 29. each of two masses of gray matter deep withing the brain between the cerebral hemispheres on either side of the third ventricle; responsible for relaying sensory information to the cortex
