Brain

5. nervous system -the part of the peripheral nervous system associated with the voluntary control of body movements
8. lobe-processing and interpreting somatosensory input
9. structure that permits a neuron (or nerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron
14. nervous system controls most functions of the body and mind
15. nervous system-the part of the nervous system responsible for control of the bodily functions not consciously directed, such as breathing, the heartbeat, and digestive processes
16. hindbrain coordinates functions that are fundamental to survival, including respiratory rhythm, motor activity, sleep, and wakefulness.
17. neurons-the nerve fibers responsible for carrying signals from the brain to the peripheral nervous system
19. nervous system- predominates in quiet “rest and digest” conditions while the sympathetic nervous system drives the “fight or flight” response in stressful situations.
20. and processing sensory information, thinking, perceiving, producing and understanding language, and controlling motor function.

1. messengers in the body
2. lobe-The temporal lobes are also believed to play an important role in processing affect/emotions, language, and certain aspects of visual perception
3. nervous system-connects the internal organs to the brain by spinal nerves
4. cortex-as consciousness, thought, emotion, reasoning, language, and memory.
6. callosum-a large bundle of more than 200 million myelinated nerve fibers that connect the two brain hemispheres, permitting communication between the right and left sides of the brain
7. nervous system the division of the nervous system containing all the nerves that lie outside of the central nervous system
10. neurons-the nerve fibers responsible for bringing sensory information from the outside world into the brain
11. lobe-visual perception, including colour, form and motion
12. quality of being easily shaped or molded
13. lobe- considered our behaviour and emotional control centre and home to our personality
18. the fundamental units of the brain and nervous system
