“DEFINATION OF BRAIN”
A part of central nervous system (CNS) enclosed in the skull
and continuous with the spinal cord through the foramen
magnum that is composed of neurons and supporting and
nutritive structures (as glia/glial cells), that integrates
sensory information from inside and outside the body in
controlling autonomic functions (as heartbeat and
respiration), in coordinating and directing correlated motor
responses, and in the process of learning
“FUNCTIONS OF BRAIN”
The human brain is a complex organ that allows us to think, move, feel, see,
hear, taste, and smell. It controls our body, receives information, analyzes
information, and stores information (our memories).
The brain produces electrical signals, which, together with chemical
reactions, let the parts of the body communicate. Nerves send these signals
throughout the body.
