These are a few terms that the definitions from the chapter that helped me better understand what I was reading! 

Neuroscience: a branch of science that focuses on the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system
(neuroanatomy and neurophysiology)

The chapter defines what  neuroscience entails as "a focused branch of the more general disciplines of anatomy and physiology, which involve the body structures and the functions of both these structures...Physical characteristics of body structures and  examine how they relate to other structures to form anatomical systems."

These parts and their jobs are....
-Central Nervous System: brain/spinal chord- brain is the chief executive officer of the entire CNS.
    - regulates all motor, sensory, and cognitive processes. 

- Peripheral Nervous System: system of nerves connected to the brainstem and spinal chord- carry information to CNS

Cerebrum: location to human qualities like reasoning, problem solving, planning, etc. - largest section of brain (40%)

Cerebral lobes: total of six lobes of four types- each lobe has different specializations: frontal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal lobes, and temporal lobes

Cerebellum: oval shaped- regulates motor and muscular activity]]> 2021-05-08 03:08:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kamaligrace77/ys71uwzfwcws4yz6/wish/1504529773 kamaligrace77 https://padlet.com/kamaligrace77/ys71uwzfwcws4yz6/wish/1504535063 It was very interesting to learn about the different parts and functions of the brain, and how language development ties into it. ]]> 2021-05-08 03:14:25 UTC https://padlet.com/kamaligrace77/ys71uwzfwcws4yz6/wish/1504535063
