2. PLAN
Components of Limbic system
Structure of the limbic system
General functions of the Limbic system
Specific functions of parts of limbic system
Association areas; Prefrontal, Limbic, Broca,
Wernicke
Concept of dominant hemisphere.
17. CARDIOVASCULAR REGULATION
Stimulation of different areas throughout the
hypothalamus can cause many neurogenic
effects on the cardiovascular system,
including increased heart rate, and
decreased heart rate.
18.
19. FUNCTION OF HIPPOCAMPUS
Required for the formation of long term
memory
maintenance of cognitive maps for
navigation.
20. FUNCTION OF AMYGDALA
Behavioral awareness
Relation between thought and surroundings
Appropriate behavioral response for each
occasion
23. ●If no reward and
punishment, repetition of
stimuli will cause
habituation and therefore
will cause the animal to
ignore it.
●If got reward and
punishment effect,
stimuli will be reinforced
and animal will build up
strong memory trace.
●So this 2 effect are
important in learning and
memory and selection of
information do take
place.
Technique for localization reward and
punishment centers in the brain of a
monkey
24. ASSOCIATION AREAS:
PARIETO-OCCIPITOTEMPORAL ASSOCIATION
AREA
1-analysis of spatial
coordination of the
body
2- area for
language
comprehension
3- area for initial
processing of the
visual language
(reading)
4- area for the
naming of objects
25. PREFRONTAL ASSOCIATION AREA
1- association with
the motor cortex to
plan complex
patterns and
sequence of the
motor movements.
2- working memory:
transform words in
information.
3- carrying out
thought processes in
the mind.
26. LIMBIC ASSOCIATION AREA
The Limbic
Association Area is
primarily concerned
with behavior,
emotion, motivation.
Is associated with the
limbic system that
provides most of the
emotional drives for
setting the other
areas of the brain into
action and even
provides the
motivational drive for
the process of
learning itself.
27. BROCA’S AREA
A special region in the frontal cortex, providing
the neuronal circuit for word formation.
Plans the motor patterns for the espressing
individual words or even short phrases are
initiated and executed.
28. WERNICKE’S AREA
Direct connect with cortex, visual area, auditory area,
language comprehesion, inteligence.
General interpretative area. Knowing area.
It plays the greatest single role of any part of the cerebral
cortex in the high comprehensive levels of the brain
fucntion. (inteligence, interpreting the complicated
meanings of differents patterns of sensory experiences).
29. CONCEPT OF THE DOMINANT HEMISPHERE
The general interpretation function of the
Wernicke’s area and the angular gyrus as well
as the functions of the speech and the motor
controlareas are usually much more
developed in the one cerebral hemisphere
than in the other.
95% of the population have the left dominant
hemisphere.
Ex.: Lefty and
Dexterous
