They are in charge of controlling motor functions, memory, talking, and social/sexual behavior.
According to Dr. James Kelly, “The parts of the brain that are most commonly affected in traumatic brain injury are the frontal and temporal lobes. And part of the reason for that is that they're up against bone, and it's fairly rigid and rough bone.”
Main Point 2
Transition and Main Points 2 – Now that we have learned how a healthy brain functions, let’s take a look at what happens to the brain when it becomes concussed.
Supporting Idea / Evidence / Detail 1 – There are natural protectors of the brain, such as hard skeletal wall structure, cerebral fluid, and layers of membranes. But even with these protectors the brain can still become severely injured.
Brainline states that, “Because the brain is very complex, every brain injury is different. Some symptoms may appear right away, while others may not show up for days or weeks after the concussion.”
The brain smashes into the skull in a sudden accelerating or stopping motion. For example, a car wreck could possibly give you a concussion from the sudden movement, make the brain displace the cerebral fluid and smash into skull
