The precentral gyrus is called the somato-motor cortex because it controls volitional

movements of the contralateral side of the body.
The central sulcus ( of Rolando) is a very important landmark in both anatomical and
functional neuroanatomy. The central sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe,
and more specifically separates the primary motor cortex anteriorly from the primary
somatosensory cortex posteriorly 1.

The Postcentral gyrus is a prominent gyrus in the lateral parietal lobe of the human brain. It
is the location of the primary somatosensory cortex, the main sensory receptive area for the
sense of touch. Like other sensory areas, there is a map of sensory space in this location,
called the sensory homunculus.

The Parietal lobe also plays a role in functions such as navigation and controlling the body,
as well as understanding spatial orientation and direction. A person’s dominant hand will
often determine which side of the parietal lobe is more active. A person who is right-handed
may have a more active left hemisphere parietal lobe.

Frontal lobe plays in daily functions include: Speech and language production: Broca’s
area, a region in the frontal lobe, helps put thoughts into words. Damage to this area can
undermine the ability to speak, to understand language, or to produce speech that makes
sense.

The function of the Occipital lobe is related to the perception and processing of visual
information, as well as the organization of complex processes of visual perception.
The Temporal lobes sit behind the ears and are the second largest lobe. They are most
commonly associated with processing auditory information and with the encoding of
memory. The temporal lobes are also believed to play an important role in processing
affect/emotions, language, and certain aspects of visual perception.

The Sylvian fissure divides the top of the brain from the bottom. In the front portion of the
brain, the Sylvian fissure divides the frontal lobe — which controls decision-making,
problem-solving, and emotion — from the temporal lobe — which regulates memory,
language, and learning functions.

The brainstem regulates vital cardiac and respiratory functions and acts as a vehicle for
sensory information.
The Spinal cord is a long, fragile tubelike structure that begins at the end of the brain stem
and continues down almost to the bottom of the spine. The spinal cord consists of nerves that
carry incoming and outgoing messages between the brain and the rest of the body.

 the Cerebellum helps in the coordination of the motor skills such as driving, walking,
running, dancing or even as simple as cutting a sheet of paper with a pair of scissors. The
cerebellum also helps with balance and muscle tone
