- The brain and the spinal cord together make up the system of nerve tissue in vertebrates called the central nervous system, which controls both voluntary movements, such as those involved in walking and in speech, and involuntary movements, such as breathing and reflex actions. It also is the centre of emotion and cognition.

5 days ago · The sensory organs of the head use the cranial nerves for signal transmission, including smell (olfactory nerve), vision (optic, oculomotor, abducens, and trochlear nerves), taste (facial and glossopharyngeal nerves) and hearing (vestibulocochlear nerve).
4 days ago · Motor functions of the brainstem include control of ocular, pupillary, facial, laryngeal, pharyngeal, and visceral musculature. Understanding the brainstem requires a general framework for what is there and where it is.
4 days ago · The frontal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal lobe, and temporal lobe have different locations and functions that support the responses and actions of the human body. Let's start by identifying where each lobe is positioned in the brain.
5 days ago · The brain stem, through its gray matter, provides many of the basic survival and reflex functions for the body. Through its white matter, the brain stem forms the connections between the brain and the body via the spinal cord, including: The corticospinal tract for motor signals
