  • This structure plays a key role in our emotional regulation, especially in anger and fear.
    Amygdala
  • What is this brain structure?
    Thalamus
  • What is the brain structure?
    Hippocampus
  • What is the brain structure?
    Corpus Callosum
  • This structure is responsible for maintaining our body temperature, appetite, thirst and hormones.
    Hypothalamus
  • This is where the four lobes of the brain exist.
    Cerebral Cortex
  • What lobe? (thinking, personality, emotional behaviour, initiative, planning, self-awareness, decision making, speech production, voluntary control of muscles)
    Frontal Lobe
  • What is this brain structure?
    Brain Stem
  • What lobe? (visual information)
    Occipital Lobe
  • What is the orange lobe of the brain?
    Temporal Lobe
  • What lobe? (sensations from our skin, such as touch, pressure, temperature and muscle movement)
    Parietal Lobe
  • What is the blue lobe of the brain?
    Occipital Lobe
  • This joins the two separate hemispheres of the brain together, thus allowing communication between them.
    Corpus Callosum
  • What is the brain structure?
    Hypothalamus
  • This gland is quite large in humans, and it produces melatonin. It is often referred to as our ‘body clock’ as it has an important role in the sleep wake cycle.
    Pineal Gland
  • What is the brain structure?
    Cerebral Cortex
  • What is the brain structure?
    Corpus Callosum
  • What is the brain structure?
    Pineal Gland
  • What cortical lobe is the primary motor cortex located in?
    Frontal lobe
  • This structure is responsible for helping us make new memories and navigate around the world.
    Hippocampus
  • What cortical lobe is the primary somatosensory cortex located in?
    Parietal lobe
  • Located at the posterior of the brain. It has many functions, but coordinating movement and balance is its main one.
    Cerebellum
  • This joins the two separate hemispheres of the brain together, thus allowing communication between them.
    Corpus Callosum
  • What is the brain structure?
    Amygdala
  • What is the yellow lobe of the brain?
    Parietal Lobe
  • What is the purple lobe of the brain?
    Frontal Lobe
  • This controls autonomic functions like breathing, heart rate, blood pressure and vomiting. It is also called the medulla oblongata.
    Brain Stem
  • All sensory data from neurons arrives here first and then is sent to relevant parts of the brain.
    Thalamus
  • What is the brain structure?
    Cerebellum
  • What lobe? (hearing, understanding of speech)
    Temporal Lobe
