ACTION STEP #1 OF THE BRAINPOWER LITERACY PLAN


BRAIN PARTS AND FUNCTIONS INVENTORY FORM
    You can print this page and then name your brain's main parts and major functional regions by writing their names on the numbered blank lines on the printout of this page:

    FOURTEEN KEY BRAIN PARTS:

    Brain Parts Test

    HINTS: / Brain Stem / Caudate Nucleus / Cerebellum / Cerebral Cortex / Corpus Callosum / Hypothalamus / Thalamus / Medulla Oblongato / Meninges / Midbrain / Pituitary / Pons / Reticular-Activating System / Spinal Cord /

    FIVE KEY BRAIN FUNCTIONS:

    What do your brain's five major functional regions do for you? This list of your five major functional brain areas is based on the advanced pioneering research by Daniel G. Amen of the University of California at Irvine. You can choose the correct letter for each answer:

      [1] CEREBRAL CORTEX = __________________?

      [2] PREFRONTAL CORTEX = ________________?

      [3] LIMBIC SYSTEM = ______________________?

      [4] CEREBELLUM = ________________________?

      [5] BRAINSTEM = __________________________?


      HINTS: / (A) Your posture and coordinated movements / (B) Your basic unconscious life-sustaining body's functions, including breathing and heartbeat / (C) Your conscious thinking processes, especially making choices by using your brainpower / (D) Your higher mental functions of perceptual awareness / (E) Your instincts and feeling processes, including your many moods, since it includes your Hyperthalamus and Amygdala/


    Now you can compare your choices to universally accepted scientific medical definitions of the brain awareness vocabulary by choosing Action Step #2 of the Brainpower Literacy Plan on the following Names of Brain Parts and Functions Form link:
