processed by the spinal cord

The Brain:• The body’s control center—responsible
for processing and relaying information• Divided into parts:
• Hemispheres: left and right, control opposite sides of the body (left controls right, right controls left)
• Lobes: regions of the cerebrum associated with different functions
