1
Q
Forebrain
A
Most important in understanding cognition, consists of diencephalon and cerebrum
2
Q
Diencephalon
A
Major structure: thalamus. Main switch board of the brain. All stimuli goes through here except for smell
3
Q
Cerebrum
A
Limbic system
Basal ganglia
Olfactory bulbs
Cerebral cortex
4
Q
Limbic system
A
Consists of hippocampus: memory and spatial processing
and amygdala; important for emotional processing
5
Q
Basal ganlia
A
Involved in many cognitive functions. Main nuclei:
Putamen
Caudate nucleus
Globus Pallidus
6
Q
Olfactory bulbs
A
Processing of olfactory info (smell)
