Is beneath the temporal lobe, occipital lobe, and parietal lobe and lies posterior to the frontal lobe.

Insula

Is the brain’s ability to produce new neurons.

Neurogenesis

Is the brain’s ability to modify its connections with other neurons.

Neuroplasticity

The motor cortex is sending messages to your body’s muscles telling them to move or not to move.

Sensory-Motor Areas

have connections to other areas of the brain, such as the cerebral cortex, thalamus, and brain stem, making them a prominent structure in learning and development.

Basal Ganglia

The Prefrontal Cortex

Is the most recent lobe of the brain to evolve and is responsible for executive functions such as higher-level thinking and cognitive processes such as attention, planning, focusing, problem solving, comparing and evaluating, judgment, and decision

Neurogenesis and Neuroplasticity.

In the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex are disrupted by chronic stress and anxiety.
