"Phineas Gage: A Gruesome but True Story About Brain Science" By: John Fleischman
This paragraph is about the part of the brain called the cerebrum. The
cerebrum is a part of the brain that controls emotions, hearing, vision, and
personality. Damage to the cerebrum can lead to motor neuron disease which
causes the cells that control the muscles that includes speaking, walking and
movements of the body to not work correctly. It functions the center of sensory
perception, memory, thoughts, and judgment. In humans the cerebrum is the
superior most region of the Central Nervous System (CNS). The cerebrum is the largest
part of the brain. In humans the cerebrum is the largest and best developed of
the five major divisions of the brain. The lobes that are part of the cerebrum are
the frontal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe, and the parietal lobe. Damage
to the cerebrum leads in results of muscular power loss. The olfaction bulb
takes up a large area of the cerebrum and is responsible for the sense of smell.
In conclusion the cerebrum is a major part of the brain that controls some of your mostly
needed senses.
