Yo yo yo! A 7th Grader in United States wants to know, "what does each part of the brain function as?"
Here's an answer:
There are 4 parts of the brain: the occipital lobe- vision, the temporal lobes- sound, the parietal lobe- touch &movement, the frontal lobe- planning & memory Read More
Right! There are four main parts of the cerebrum:
The occipital lobe is near the back of your head, it processes vision, object recognition and controls eye movement.
The temporal lobes are located on the sides of your head (near your ears) and that processes sound, locates sound, and processes speech.
The parietal lobe is near the top of your head, and that processes movement, sensation, and body awareness.
The frontal lobe, near your forehead, deals with memory, planning and mood.
There are other parts of the brain, too. For example the cerebellum, found near the back of the head, controls involuntary functions, like heart rate, and helps with balance & coordination.
