Anatomy and physiology: Week 9
Brain Physiology
Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research about the brainstem, cerebellum, and cerebrum. Based on your research and understanding, respond to the following:
- Analyze the three sections of the brain stem, their individual functions, and their component role in brain physiology.
- Categorize the brainstem, cerebellum, and cerebrum in terms of anatomy and functions.
- Evaluate the functions of the ventricles of the brain and the choroid plexus, including their role in the formation and maintenance of CSF.
- Distinguish the cranial nerves and categorize if the nerve is sensory, motor, or mixed and its major function(s).

1.
Brainstem in humans is subdivided into three with their various functions:
I.
the midbrain (mesencephalon),
II.
the pons (metencephalon), and the
III.
Medulla oblongata (myelencephalon).
Midbrain - body movement, eye movement, hearing, and vision.
Medulla - regulates heart rate and breathing.
Pons - regulates sensory processes, arousal, sleep, and consciousness.
