The 6 lobes of the brain include the frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, insular and limbic lobes. Learn about their structure and function at Kenhub!
Lobes of the Brain and What They Control. Each brain hemisphere (parts of the cerebrum) has four sections, called lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital. Each lobe controls specific functions. Frontal lobe.
Each hemisphere can be divided into four lobes: the frontal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe, and parietal lobe. The lobes are functional segments. They specialize in various areas of thought and memory, of planning and decision making, and of speech and sense perception.
Now that we’ve got a bird’s eye view of the brain’s major regions, let’s zoom in on the cerebrum’s specialized departments: the cerebral lobes. These are like the different floors of a department store, each dedicated to specific functions. Starting at the front, we have the frontal lobe.
This interactive brain model is powered by the Wellcome Trust and developed by Matt Wimsatt and Jack Simpson; reviewed by John Morrison, Patrick Hof, and Edward Lein. Structure descriptions were written by Levi Gadye and Alexis Wnuk and Jane Roskams .
Picture 1: Parts of the Human Brain. The frontal lobe is located behind the forehead, and is responsible for considerable of the complex cognitive function: Reasoning, imagination, planning, values and behavior. The parietal lobe is located in the upper back of the frontal lobe.
The brain comprises four lobes, each associated with different functions. The frontal lobe is found at the front of the brain; the parietal lobe is behind the frontal lobe; the temporal lobe is located at the sides of the head; and the occipital lobe is found at the back of the head.
In this comprehensive 3D animation we go over the anatomy of the brain in detail, from the lobes, gyri and sulci of the cortex, to the nuclei of the basal ganglia, white matter, parts of the brainstem, locations of the ventricles, commissures, and other structures.
The lobes of the brain are the four major identifiable regions of the human cerebral cortex, and they comprise the surface of each hemisphere of the cerebrum. [1] The two hemispheres are roughly symmetrical in structure, and are connected by the corpus callosum.
Each hemisphere can be further divided into 4 lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital. The lobes are named for the skull bones that cover them. Frighteningly, these lobes are some of the areas of the brain attacked by Alzheimer's disease.
