Visual association cortex of the Occipital lobe
lateral ot the PVC extends into the ventral temporal lobe analyzes visual info involved in visual perception |
|
Corpus Callosum
|
thick axon bundle connection regions of the hemisphere, toward the core (long circle white thing in pics)
Coordinates sencory processing and motor output between the hemispheres humans can live without! Seizures (epilepsy) that do not respond to drugs have the corpus callousum cut in half so crazy electricty signals in brain cannot be coordinated to other side of brain |

Basal Ganglia
|
Telencephelon of forebrain
Motivation, generation of movemement striatum (caudate nucleus and putamen) Globus pallidus Basal ganglia responds to primary motor cortex of frontal lobe because that is what sends "go" message |
|
Thalamus
|
of Deincephalon of forebrain
relays info 1. lateral geniculate nucleus 2. medial geniculate nucleus "mail room"; projection fibers=axon bundles extending from thalamus |
|
Lateral geniculate nucleus
|
In the thalamus of the diencephalon:
vision info comes in before it goes to the primary visual cortex of the occipital lobe |
|
Medial geniculate nucleus
|
autidotry info comes here before it goes to the autidory cortex of the temporal lobe
|
|
Hypothalamus
|
brain- forebrain- diencephalon - Basal Ganglia - hypothalamus
