Word bank: • Brain stem • Cerebrum • Cerebellum • Diencephalon • Medulla oblongata • Pituitary gland • Pons The __________ connects the spinal cord to the higher-thinking centers of the brain. It consists of the medulla oblongata, pons, and midbrain. The __________ is the largest part of the brain and allows the body to consciously control its actions. It's divided into two hemispheres, each with four lobes. The __________ is a small endocrine gland that secretes and stores hormones that manage endocrine system functions. It's attached to the end of the infundibulum of the hypothalamus and has two lobes. The __________ acts as the conduction pathway between the brain and spinal cord. It contains nuclei that regulate autonomic functions, such as respiration and heartbeat. The __________ fine tunes the movements of the body and manages balance and posture. The __________ bridges the two main function areas of the central nervous system and forms part of the brain stem. It's continuous with the medulla oblongata. The __________ is a region of the forebrain with three distinct structures, the thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus. These structures contribute to learning and memory, the regulation of autonomic nervous system functions, emotions and behavior, food consumption, and body temperature and circadian rhythms.

Name: Date: Word Bank Brainstem Cerebrum Cerebellum Diencephalon Medulla oblongata Pituitary gland Pons The brain consists of the medulla oblongata, pons, and midbrain. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and allows the body to process information and control voluntary movements. The pituitary gland is a small endocrine gland that secretes and stores hormones that manage endocrine system functions. It is attached to the end of the infundibulum of the hypothalamus and has two lobes. The brainstem acts as the conduction pathway between the brain and spinal cord. It contains nuclei that regulate autonomic functions, such as respiration and heartbeat. The cerebellum is responsible for coordinating movement, balance, and posture. The pons bridges the two main functional areas of the central nervous system and forms part of the brainstem. It is continuous with the medulla oblongata. The diencephalon is a region of the forebrain with three distinct structures: the thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus. These structures contribute to learning and memory, the regulation of autonomic nervous system functions, emotions and behavior, food consumption, and body temperature and circadian rhythms.
