Brain FunctionOnline version Functional Areas of the Cortex by Paul Uk 1 Prefrontal Cortex - Site of higher intellectual processes, i.e. reasoning, working and long-term memory, deliberation, motor and cognitive anticipation, worry, concentration, planning, problem solving, knowledge of consequences 2 Frontal Eye Field - (1) Initiates impulses for movement for the extrinsic eye muscles (2) Also inhibits and modifies impulses from the primary motor cortex 3 Premotor Cortex - (1) Programs semi-voluntary motor activities (2) Initiates impulses for posture and complex learned movements of a sequential nature, i.e. walking, piano playing, bike riding (3) Inhibits and modifies impulses generated by the primary motor cortex 4 Primary Motor Cortex - (1) Controls the voluntary skeletal muscles on the opposite (contralateral) side of the body (2) Conscious control resulting in precise and skilled movement of voluntary skeletal muscles 5 Broca’s Area - (1) Represents muscles found in the face, tongue, lips, palate and vocal cords (2) Programs muscles involved in symbolic communication such as those used for speech, writing, and signing 6 Primary Auditory Cortex - (1) Where impulses, generated in the ear for hearing, terminate and generation of the sound occurs (hear bell or dog barking) 7 Auditory Association Area - (1) Interprets and identifies the sounds received by the primary cortex (identifies what is making the sound) 8 Wernike’s Area - (1) Responsible for comprehension of the written and spoken word, especially in children and when adults are reading unfamiliar words (2) Puts what we want to say into a pattern of impulses that is sent to Broca’s area to be verbalized 9 Primary Gustatory Cortex - (1) Is where impulses generated by the tongue, that represent taste, terminate 10 Primary Somatosensory Cortex - (1) Receives impulses representing the general sense (hot, cold, pain, stretch, etc.) from the skin, muscles, joints and internal organs from the opposite side of the body and interprets them to generate the sensation (2) Locates source of sensation 11 Angular Gyrus - (1) Connects Wernicke’s area with the primary visual cortex (2) Transforms visual patterns of impulses into auditory patterns and the reverse 12 Primary Visual Cortex - (1) Impulses generated by the retina of the eye terminate in this area and a visual image is created 13 Visual Association Area - (1) Where recognition and interpretation of visual stimuli occur (2) Where movement, color, shape (and texture) are processed (3) Stores visual memories 14 Posterior Association (Gnostic) Area - (1) Receives input from all the sensory association area (2) Integrates and coordinates sensory data from all the regions and generates a single “thought” (3) Sends the “thought” to the prefrontal area where decisions etc. are made
