what are the different functions of the lobes of the cerebral cortex?
61165
Each side of your brain contains four lobes. The frontal lobe is important for cognitive functions and control of voluntary movement or activity. The parietal lobe processes information about temperature, taste, touch and movement, while the occipital lobe is primarily responsible for vision.

The four lobes of the brain are the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes (Figure 2). The frontal lobe is located in the forward part of the brain, extending back to a fissure known as the central sulcus. The frontal lobe is involved in reasoning, motor control, emotion, and language.

Visual cortex. The visual cortex of the brain is that part of the cerebral cortex which processes visual information. It is located in the occipital lobe.

Contains cardiac, respiratory, vomiting, and vasomotor centers regulating heart rate, breathing, and blood pressure. The primary function is to integrate motor, sensory, and cognitive performances between the cerebral cortex on one side of the brain to the same region on the other side.

The cerebrum consists of two cerebral hemispheres the outer layer called cortex (gray matter) and the inner layer (white matter). There are four lobes in the cortex, the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe.

Each lobe is further divided in functional areas. The frontal lobe like other lobes has several functional areas. ... One of the functional area of frontal lobe is prefrontal cortex or prefrontal area. This area is associated with concentration, emotion and other higher brain functions.

Each hemisphere has four sections, called lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital.

The cerebral cortex is responsible for most "higher order" or intellectual brain functions such as thinking, reasoning, judging, planning, voluntary movement, and overall behavior. Injury to this area of the brain can impair judgment, cause dramatic personality change, and create problems with attention and focus.

The cortex is the portion of our brains that strongly distinguishes us from animals. It is the part of the brain responsible for high-level thinking, problem solving, language, planning, vision, pattern recognition, and so on.

Parietal Lobe. The parietal lobe has a number of different functions: it is the primary cortical area for somatic sensation, the sense of touch and limb position; it associates somatosensory, visual and auditory activity for the analysis of space and the transmission of spatial information to the motor system.

Which part of the brain controls executive functions? Executive functions are controlled by the frontal lobes of the brain. The frontal lobes are connected with many other brain areas and co-ordinate the activities of these other regions. They can be thought of as the conductor of the brain's orchestra.

The temporal lobe is involved in primary auditory perception, such as hearing, and holds the primary auditory cortex. The primary auditory cortex receives sensory information from the ears and secondary areas process the information into meaningful units such as speech and words.
