Here's a concise summary of the functions of each brain structure:
Cerebrum
1. *Controls voluntary movements*: Motor cortex
2. *Processes sensory information*: Sensory cortex
3. *Regulates emotions, thoughts, and behavior*: Frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes
Cerebellum
1. *Coordinates movements*: Balance, posture, and motor coordination
2. *Regulates learning and memory*: Motor skills and habits
Brainstem
*Pons*
1. *Controls sleep and arousal*: Regulates sleep-wake cycle
2. *Relays signals*: Between cerebrum and cerebellum
*Medulla Oblongata (M. Oblongata)*
1. *Regulates vital functions*: Breathing, heart rate, blood pressure
2. *Controls reflexes*: Swallowing, coughing, vomiting
Thalamus
1. *Relays sensory information*: To cerebrum for processing
2. *Regulates consciousness*: Arousal, alertness, and sleep
Hypothalamus
1. *Regulates body temperature*: Thermoregulation
2. *Controls hunger and thirst*: Appetite and satiety
3. *Regulates hormones*: Pituitary gland function
4. *Regulates emotions*: Fear, anger, and aggression
Amygdala
1. *Processes emotions*: Fear, anxiety, and emotional responses
2. *Regulates emotional memories*: Storage and retrieval of emotional experiences
Hippocampus
1. *Forms and consolidates memories*: Short-term to long-term memory
2. *Regulates spatial navigation*: Orientation and spatial awareness
Other structures
*Basal Ganglia*
1. *Regulates movement*: Motor control and habit formation
*Limbic System*
1. *Regulates emotions*: Emotional processing and memory
*Corpus Callosum*
1. *Connects hemispheres*: Communication between left and right sides of the brain
