    The document discusses the structure and function of the brain. It describes that the brain weighs between 1300-1400g and is made up of around 100 billion neurons. It explains that the cerebrum is responsible for functions like memory, the cerebellum controls movement coordination, the hypothalamus regulates body functions, and the medulla is important for basic functions like breathing. The document also notes that the sensory and motor strips in the cerebrum are involved in processing sensory input and controlling movement.
