Anatomical Chart The Brain

Product Information

The frontal lobe is the largest lobe of the brain, located directly behind the forehead. It is responsible for your self-awareness, emotions, planning, judgement, movement, and speech. It is involved with memory, impulse control, and social behaviour. The frontal lobe is separated from the parietal lobe by the central sulcus and separated from the temporal lobes by the lateral sulcus. Parietal lobe The abducens nerve is yet another nerve that is involved with the movements of your eyes by supplying the lateral rectus muscle. It allows you to look outwards. VII. Facial Nerve The main blood supply to the brain comes from the carotid arteries and the vertebral arteries. The carotid arteries branch off from the aorta (the largest artery in your body found by the heart) and are broken into the internal and external carotid artery. The internal carotid artery and the vertebral arteries come together to form an anastomosis, a complex network of blood vessels that provide an alternative route for blood to move through if an injury to the brain occurs. This particular anastomosis is called the circle of Willis. Circle of Willis

The optic nerve conveys sensory information to the brain regarding your sense of vision. III. Oculomotor nerve The parietal lobe is located above the temporal lobe and between the frontal lobe and occipital lobe. Containing the sensory cortex, it is responsible for the sense of touch, pain and temperature. It is also responsible for interpreting language, hearing, memory, and spatial and visual perception. Temporal lobe The vestibulocochlear nerve is involved with your balance and hearing. It branches off into two different components, the vestibular nerve and the cochlear nerve. The vestibular nerve helps you maintain balance, while the cochlear nerve helps you hear. IX. Glossopharyngeal nerve The brain is the central organ of our nervous system, consisting of twelve pairs of cranial nerves. The twelve cranial nerves are as follows: I. Olfactory nerve The occipital lobe is the smallest lobe of the brain, located posterior to the parietal and temporal lobes, lying beneath the skull’s occipital bone. It is responsible for interpreting vision.Colour-coded lateral view of the brain showing the brainstem, cerebellum, central sulcus, and the frontal, parietal and temporal lobes.

The brainstem connects the brain to and is structurally continuous with the spinal cord. It is responsible for involuntary functions such as breathing, heart rate, sleep cycles, vomiting, digestion, coughing and sneezing and several other autonomic functions. The brainstem consists of the medulla oblongata, pons, and midbrain. The oculomotor nerve helps control the muscle movements of your eyes. It also constricts the pupil exposed to bright lighting and helps your lens adjust when looking at near or far objects. IV. Trochlear nerve The cerebrum is the uppermost and largest part of the brain. It is split by a central fissure into the right and left hemispheres and is also divided into four major lobes. The cerebrum controls several functions such as learning, emotions and movement, to name a few.

The human brain is the most complex part of our body and the organthat defines our humanity. The brain is composed of three major sections: The cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem.

The trigeminal nerve is the largest and most complex of the cranial nerves and is involved with facial sensation. It is divided into three parts. The ophthalmic part provides sensation to parts of your eyes, nose, eyelids and forehead. The maxillary part provides sensation to the middle of your face, part of your nose, upper teeth and lower eyelids. The mandibular part gives sensation to the lower part of your face, including the tongue and lower teeth. A significant action fired by the trigeminal nerve is allowing you to masticate (chew) your food. VI. Abducens nerveOur human brain anatomy art print has been designed by aǨprofessional medical illustrator so is anatomically correct as well as beautiful to view! The brain anatomy poster is laminated and wipeable marker pens can be used to make notations. Our range of anatomical wall charts make perfect displays for use by professionals in a clinic and for students. Designed by our professional medical illustrators and exclusive to AnatomyStuff, the brain anatomy poster shows the following, fully labelled anatomical details: The cerebellum is situated underneath the cerebrum and is used to coordinate our movements, posture and balance. The cerebellum is found below the temporal and occipital lobes, and it is the largest structure of our hindbrain. The cerebellum is broken up into three lobes: the flocculonodular lobe, anterior lobe and posterior lobe.
