What does the Nervous System do???

Thinking Feeling Moving Dreaming Regulates internal functions Learning/memory Etc….

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Consists of 2 main parts:

1. Central Nervous System:• Brain and spinal cord

2. Peripheral Nervous System:* made up of nerve cells that send messages between the central nervous system and all the parts of the body.

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Main Objective:

Identify the major structures of the brain, and explain the functions of each structure.

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Brain Divided into 3 Sections:

1. Hindbrain

2. Midbrain

3. Forebrain

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Hindbrain:

Medulla: Vital functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, and

breathing. Pons:

Located in front of medulla and is involved in regulating body movement, attention, sleep, and alertness.

Cerebellum: Balance and coordination.

Chapter 3Chapter 3

The Midbrain:

Located between hindbrain and forebrain. Vision and hearing Contains part of reticular activating system:

Part of brain that is involved in attention, sleep, and arousal.

EXEX: Drugs/alcohol can affect

this alertness.

Chapter 3Chapter 3

The Forebrain:

Involved in complex thinking processes!!

4 key areas:1. Thalamus

2. Hypothalamus

3. Limbic System

4. Cerebrum

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Thalamus:

The structure of the brain that relays messages from the sense organs to the cerebral cortex. EX: Relays message to brain, such as pain, in

order for brain to respond.

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Hypothalamus:

The neural structure located below the thalamus that controls temperature, hunger, thirst, and various aspects of emotion: Sexual behavior; caring for offspring,

aggression; etc….

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Limbic System:

A group of neural structures at the base of the cerebral hemispheres that is associated with emotion, motivation, hunger, sex, and aggression.

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Cerebrum:

The large mass of the forebrain, consisting of two hemispheres.

Cerebral Cortex: The bumpy, convoluted surface

of the brain; the body’s control

and information-processing center.

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

The Cerebral Cortex: What Makes Us Unique

Made up of right and left hemispheres.

Corpus callosum: The nerve fibers that connect

the left and right hemispheres

of the cerebral cortex.

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Information received by one side of the body is transmitted to the OPPOSITE hemisphere of the brain.

Each hemisphere of the brain is divided into four parts/lobes.

Parietal Lobe:

Sensory Cortex:Warmth, cold ,touch ,and pain

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Frontal Lobe:

Motor cortex Neurons in the motor cortex fire when we

move certain parts of our body.

23

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Association Areas:

Association areas: Areas of the cerebral cortex that are involved in

such mental operations as thinking, memory, learning, and problem solving.

Shape information into something meaningful.EX: Puzzle

24

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Language Abilities:

Right-handed people:

Language functions based in left hemisphere

About 2 out of 3 left-handed people:

Language in left hemisphere

HOLT, RINEHART AND WINSTON

PPSYCHOLOGYSYCHOLOGY PRINCIPLES IN PRACTICE

25

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Left vs. Right Hemispheres:

Left Hemisphere: Language, logic, problem solving, mathematical

computation. Right Hemisphere:

Imagination, art, feelings, and spatial relations.

Even though have heard “right brained” and “left brained” the hemispheres DO NOT act independently of each other!!

Chapter 3Chapter 3

Methods of Studying the Brain:

1. Accidents: Accidents and brain damage

2. Electrical Stimulation of the Brain:

Stimulate parts of brain to change behavioral patterns.

Chapter 3Chapter 3

3. The Electroencephalogram (EEG): Electrodes record electrical activity of brain. Used to diagnose some psychological disorders

and locate tumors.

4. Scans: CAT scan : Computerized axial tomography

3-dimensionanl view of brain.

MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging More powerful; shows details more clearly

PET scan: Positron emission tomography Show activity of brain at given time
