Specialized Areas of the Cerebrum Somatic sensory area – receives impulses
from the body’s sensory receptors Primary motor area – sends impulses to
skeletal muscles Broca’s area – involved in our ability to speak

Hypothalamus “Under” the thalamus Important autonomic nervous system center
Helps regulate body temperature Controls water balance Regulates metabolism
An important part of the limbic system (emotions)

Cerebrospinal Fluid Similar to blood plasma composition Formed by the choroid plexus Forms a watery cushion to protect the brain Circulated in arachnoid space, ventricles, and
central canal of the spinal cord

Traumatic Brain Injuries Concussion
Slight brain injury No permanent brain damage
Contusion Nervous tissue destruction occurs Nervous tissue does not regenerate
Cerebral edema Swelling from the inflammatory response May compress and kill brain tissue
