Brain Function and Structure

The cerebrum, brainstem, and cerebellum system are the three main components of the brain. The main part of the brain is called the cerebrum, which is made up of the right and left hemispheres. It carries out higher cognitive tasks such touch interpretation, vision, hearing, speech, cognition, emotion, learning, and movement control. The brain is the most vital organ in the human body. All of the things that make us human—thinking, feeling, acting—are controlled and coordinated by it. It also permits us to have memories and emotions.
