From there, the fetus begins to prepare itself for the world outside and can experience sensory sensations as well as begins learning to control its reaction to sensory sensations. As a result, this continues until the end of the third trimester, as it continues on developing control over movements and storing information that was gained from sensory sensations in the Parietal Lobe. In conclusion, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during the Prenatal Period.]]> 2022-04-21 01:05:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151214108 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151214554 During Newborns, the brain is about a quarter of the adult’s brain, so it will continue to develop. The Limbic System and the Cerebral Cortex are still primitive and are not completely developed yet, so they will continue to develop as the babies live and pass this developmental stage (Newborn). As a result, the newborns are born fully equipped with all the important senses of taste, smell, sight, hearing, and touch such as detecting only light and dark, startling in responses to loud sounds, preferring their mother’s smell, and preferring sweet tastes. However, the majority of the senses are still developing and are less precise than others, which is mainly due to the lack of development from the Parietal Lobe. In conclusion, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Newborns.]]> 2022-04-21 01:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151214554 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151214780 During Infancy/Toddlerhood, the brain continues to develop in spurts called “critical periods” in which the number of connections between brain cells (neurons) doubles and has twice as many synapses as adults. This then enables the brain, including the spinal cord, to learn faster than at any other period of life due to the connections that let learning occur. Due to this, it has lasting effects on human brain development. As a result, the infants begin learning to walk due to the advance in coordination and muscle control as the brain matures. For example, when an infant learns to walk with ease, they will be able to run, kick, and climb. Furthermore, infants possess functional sensory systems in which the vision is somewhat organized and hearing, touch, and smell are fairly mature, which are mainly through the Parietal Lobe. However, as the senses still lack knowledge due to their development, the infants must gain the ability to control their movements and the five senses through experiences with the world. Overall, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Toddlerhood and Infancy.]]> 2022-04-21 01:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151214780 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215110 During Early Childhood, the brain weight increases from 70-90% of the adult weight, and there is a dramatic growth at the front of the brain which results in the improvement of language, memory, and thinking skills. Furthermore, there is an overproduction of synapses and more development, which leads to the continuity of synaptic pruning and helps increase the efficiency of neural transmission. Due to this, children are able to know the smell of some foods and have developed the majority of their senses in a further way, which they are able to distinguish the different senses in the environment surrounding them, and this mostly happens through Motor Cortex, Frontal Lobe, and Sensory Cortex. In addition, the children are able to develop better motor skills such as running, kicking a ball, bending over easily, and jumping in place independently, in a more comfortable way without any support. Therefore, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Early Childhood.]]> 2022-04-21 01:06:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215110 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215363 During Childhood, the back of the brain begins the final growth spurt in which the growth spurt moves from the back to the front of the brain, and as such, the cerebellum develops first which is responsible for managing motor and physical coordination. As a result, children make major gains in coordination and muscle strength in such a way they develop basic motor skills as well as complex activities like dancing or playing the piano, which mostly happens in Motor Cortex, Frontal Lobe, and Sensory Cortex. Furthermore, children also get used to all of their five senses during this developmental stage as the senses are fully developed and are used as part of their everyday life through their surroundings from the environment. In conclusion, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Childhood.]]> 2022-04-21 01:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215363 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215598 During Adolescence, the brain synapses will number approximately 500 trillion and have placed importance on the most used connections, which is steady into adulthood. In addition, the midbrain quickly develops and causes a big change in emotional control and motivation, which can cause the misreading of emotions of teenagers. The front of the brain also known as the prefrontal cortex goes through a growth spurt in which it performs many functions such as organizing thoughts and problem solving, however, it also lacks the function of controlling dangerous behaviours. Furthermore, adolescents can become clumsy or awkward as their brain needs more time in adjusting to bigger bodies and long limbs, and in general, have a hard time adjusting to the new developmental stage of adolescence, which is due to puberty coming in for both genders. Their bodies change and have different sex characteristics such as boys get facial hair and girl get period, showing the different stage of a growth spurt, which is mainly due to the Pituitary Gland and the Frontal Lobe. By this developmental stage, even though there are changes to the body, they have mastered in all of their five senses and motor skills, both gross and fine. Clearly, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Adolescence.]]> 2022-04-21 01:07:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215598 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215886 During Adulthood, the brain is now fully developed, however, there are some age-related changes occurring to the brain such as memory change. But, the majority of the abilities are fairly stable throughout early and middle adulthood, so it’s important to stay mentally active in order to have a healthy brain. Due to this, adults' physical abilities are at their peaks such as muscle strength, sensory abilities, cardiac functioning, and reaction time, even though the physical maturation is complete, which is due to the Frontal and Temporal Lobe. As a result, some characteristics start to decline such as sensitivity to sound decreases and the lens of the eye begins to thicken and stiffen. Additionally, the overall ability to perform simple tasks is still possible, but performing complex activities has gradually slowed down, however it is not significant yet. To conclude, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Early Adulthood.]]> 2022-04-21 01:07:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151215886 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151216078 During Middle Adulthood, some portion of the brain begins to slow down, in terms of functioning, however, the ability to regulate emotions and decision-making has been shown to improve slightly or stay the same, so, it is not much different from early adulthood. As a result, the ability in all senses starts to decrease gradually and become more apparent, while also having a higher risk for certain eye diseases such as glaucoma, which are mainly through Temporal Lobe, Sensory Cortex, and Occipital Lobe. In addition, the motor skills also tend to decline in which learning capabilities remain intact, however, performing considerable performances are still acceptable. This shows that middle-aged adults still have good health, but, some systems start to decrease and the overall change of different senses and motor skills begins to go away and disappear. In conclusion, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Middle Adulthood.]]> 2022-04-21 01:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151216078 jiwonchun0 https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151216396 During Late Adulthood, aging leads to a significant decline of some of the major functions of the brain, in which there is the loss of brain weight. Most significantly, the loss of brain weight often outweighs maintenance and improvement, and this can cause a higher risk of brain-related diseases, as well as the brain, becoming less structured at accessing information. As a result, older adults lose their ability to see objects at varying distances, and all the senses also decline with age, which the adults demonstrate longer reaction times, slower movement speeds, and less smooth movements. As well, the overall structures of all the senses are beginning to change and the functions decline significantly from what it was before, such as the pupils decreasing to about ⅓ of the size compared to Early Adulthood and the pupils reacting more slowly to darkness and lights. Furthermore, some systems lose their efficiency and there are significant changes to the different senses and movements as they decline with age, which mainly comes from the Sensory Cortex, Occipital Lobe, Parietal Lobe, Temporal Lobe, and Pituitary Gland, as there is a loss in the number of nerve cells and sensory cortex degenerating. Overall, this is the basic development of the brain as well as the development of different Sensory Faculties and Motor Skills during Late Adulthood.]]> 2022-04-21 01:08:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jiwonchun0/ay864ulq4l6thpmi/wish/2151216396
