The human brain is divided into three main parts - the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The forebrain contains the cerebrum, thalamus, and limbic system. The thalamus carries sensory information to the cerebrum and limbic system. The hypothalamus connects the nervous system to the pituitary gland which controls growth and reproduction. The limbic system controls responses like hunger, fear, and sexual responses. The midbrain controls reflexes and hearing. The hindbrain contains the cerebellum, pons, and medulla oblongata. The cerebellum controls balance and voluntary movement, while the medulla oblongata controls automatic functions like breathing and heart rate.

1. HUMAN BRAIN
 Brain is organ of soft nervous tissue
contained in the skull of vertebrates,
functioning as the coordinating centre of the
body

2. PARTS OF BRAIN
 Human Brain is divided into 3 main parts
on the basis of their function and
placements
The 3 main parts of Human Brain are ;
1. Fore Brain
2. Mid Brain
3. Hind Brain

3. FORE BRAIN
Position: It is the anterior part of the brain
It has 3 parts
1. Cerebrum
2. Thalamus
3. Limbic System

4. THALAMUS
 Position: It is located
above the brain stem and
between the cerebral
cortex and mid-brain
 Function: It carries
sensory information from
the body to Cerebrum
and The Limbic System

5. HYPOTHALAMUS & PITUITARY
GLAND
HYPOTHALAMUS
 Position: It lies under the
thalamus
 Function: It connects the
nervous system with the
endocrine system via pituitary
gland
PITUITARY
GLAND
 Structure: It is pea-shaped
structure
 Function: It is very important
in Growth and reproduction

6. LIMBIC SYSTEM
 Structure: It is arc shaped structure
between thalamus and cerebrum
 Function: It controls responses like
 Hunger
 Fear
 Thirst
 Anger
 Sexual responses etc

7. CEREBRUM
Structure:
 It is divided into 2 halves called cerebral
hemisphere
 They communicate
via corpus collosum
 Cerebral cortex is
the outer region
of Cerebrum

8. FUNCTION OF CEREBRUM
 It helps In movement
 It controls speech
 It is responsible for sensory processing
 It determines the intelligence of the being

9. MID-BRAIN
 Position: It is located
below the cerebral
cortex and above the
hind brain
 Function: It controls
reflex movements of
the body and hearing
reflexes

10. HIND-BRAIN
Position: It is present at the
backside of the Brain
Parts: It consists of
1. Cerebellum
2. Pons
3. Medulla Oblongata

11. CEREBELLUM
 Meaning: It is latin for
Little Brain
 Position: It is located at
the back side of head
 Functions: It controls the
balance of the body and
co-ordinates the
voluntary movement of
the body

12. PONS
 Meaning: Pons mean
“Bridge”
 Position: It is located
above medulla
 Function: It controls
sleep as well as the rate
and pattern of breathing

13. MEDULLA OBLONGATA
 Position: It is the
posterior part of the brain
 Function: It controls
automatic actions e.g
1. Breathing
2. Heart rate
3. Swallowing
4. Blood Circulation
