the body, and identify and give meaning to objects - ANS ✓Parietal Lobe (Middle
Brain)
6. Damage to the anterior portion may cause asterogenesis, the loss of ability to
recognize objects via the sense of touch. This may be experienced by patients
with post cerebral vascular accidents - ANS ✓parietal Lobe
7. and involved in short-term memory, speech, auditory signals, and smell
recognition. It identifies "what" things are - object identification. It contains the
limbic system, amygdala, and hippocampus. - ANS ✓Temporal Lobe
8. Disorders from this lobe include dementia, affective disorders, and attention
deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD). - ANS ✓Temporal Lobe
9. controls visual processing. Damage to this lobe results in the inability to form
visual memories. Bilateral lobe damage results in the inability to recognize items
by sight even though vision is normal. - ANS ✓Occipital Lobe
10. This separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe. - ANS ✓Central sulcus
11. This controls the communication between the two brain hemispheres. Is involved
in attention, impulse control, and emotion regulation. It integrates impulses from
both sides of the brain. - ANS ✓corpus callosum

13. This is located deep in the temporal lobes and involved in emotional regulation
and perception of odors. All smells travel directly to this structure. Cooking
smells can elicit memories of childhood events and holidays. A traumatic event
can result in the formation of the fear response, causing the fight or flight reflex
within the autonomic nervous system and affects the hypothalamic-pituitary-
adrenal (HPA) axis causing the release of stress hormones - ANS ✓Amygdala

processing. All sensory systems except for the olfaction process through the

15. A group of structures involved in voluntary motor movements, cognition, and
emotion. Movement disorders include Parkinson's disease, obsessive-compulsive
disorder (OCD), and Tourette syndrome. - ANS ✓Basal ganglia
16. This is involved in complex motor actions and linkage of cognition to motor
actions. It is the main input area for the basal ganglia and is activated when
anticipating or engaging in pleasure - ANS ✓Dorsal striatum
17. This is involved in the reward circuit and reinforces addictive behaviors. - ANS
