Question

What are the three main parts of the brain? Give the function of each part.​

Answer 1

The brain has three main parts: the cerebrum, cerebellum and brainstem. Cerebrum: is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement.

Answer 2

Your brain is the most powerful organ in your body, despite weighing only three pounds. Its texture is comparable to that of hard jelly.

Three primary sections make up the brain:

1. Cerebrum
2. Cerebellum
3. Brain stem

Cerebrum:

• Your skull is mostly taken up by your cerebrum.
• It contributes to thinking, feeling, problem-solving, and remembering.
• The pituitary gland, hypothalamus, and thalamus make up the majority of it.
• It has a control unit for temperature, sleep, hunger, and other functions.

Cerebellum:

• Your cerebellum is located beneath the cerebrum at the back of your head.
• It governs balance and coordination.
• Some involuntary actions are also under its control.

Brain stem:

• In front of your cerebellum, beneath your cerebrum, is where the brain stem is located.
• It controls automatic processes including breathing, digestion, heart rate, and blood pressure and connects the brain to the spinal cord.

One of the most extensive networks of blood veins in your body supplies nutrients to your brain. Your brain may utilize up to 50% of the oxygen and fuel when you are working hard. The cortex is a specific outer layer of the cerebrum that makes up the wrinkly surface of your brain.
