The document describes the main parts of the brain and their functions. It explains that the brain is protected by the skull and meninges, and surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid. The main parts listed are the cerebrum, cerebellum, medulla oblongata, spinal cord, thalamus, and hypothalamus. The cerebrum controls intelligence, memory, thought, imagination, and voluntary movement. The cerebellum maintains body equilibrium and coordinates muscles. The medulla oblongata controls involuntary actions like breathing and heartbeat.

4.  SKULL
Brain is protected inside a hard case called
skull.
 MENINGES
The three layered covering of the brain is
called meninges
 CEREBROSPINAL FLUID
It fills the inner layers. CSF helps to provide
nutrients and oxygen to the tissues in brain and also
protects the brain.

7. BRAIN PARTS FUNCTIONS
CEREBRUM
• Centre of qualities like intelligence, memory, thought
and imagination.
• Senses like sight, hearing, and taste.
• Cerebrum controls all voluntary movements.
CEREBELLUM • Maintains the equilibrium of the body by coordinating
muscular activities.
MEDULLA
OBLONGATA
• Controls involuntary actions like breathing, heartbeat,
etc.
THALAMUS • It act as a relay station of impulses to and from the
cerebrum.
HYPOTHALAMUS • It has an important role in maintaining homeostasis
