2. Occipital lobe

Primary area:

Association areas:

        3. Temporal lobe

Primary area:

Association area: Wernicke’s area

4. Parietal lobe

Primary area: Somatosensory cortex/strip

Association areas: a few functions

Answer 1

Cerebral Cortex : Cerebral cotext is the largest region of cerebrum , it controls functions like memory , attention , Language, Thoughts ,awarness etc .

Cerebral cortex is divided in to 4 Lobes which are :

1. Frontol Lobe
2. Parietal lobe
3. Temperal Lobe
4. Occipital lobe

Frontol Lobe : Frontol lobe of the brain mainly controls Cognitive skills like emotional expression, language, judgment, problem solving, memory.

Primary Area functions of Frontol Lobes : It involves motor functions and helps in generating Neural Impulses .

Parietal Lobe :Primary- It involves in sensation and perception.

Somato sensory - It recieves sensory signals from the neurons .Neurons that sense sensations in our skin, pain, visual, or auditory stimuli.

Temporal Lobe : Involves in auditory perception and also involves in secoundary function like auditory and process information like words .

Wernicke’s area: which is important for language develpment which is comprehension and speech .

Occipital Lobe :involves in visual processing  The primary visual cortex is Brodmann area.
