1. The human brain is made up of billions of neurons that connect with each other through synapses.
2. Neurons send signals to each other by releasing neurotransmitters, which bind to receptors on the receiving neuron’s surface.
3. The brain is divided into two hemispheres, the left and right, which control different functions.
4. The frontal lobe is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as language, memory, planning, problem solving, and decision making.
5. The parietal lobe is responsible for spatial processing and sensory integration.
6. The occipital lobe is responsible for visual processing.
7. The temporal lobe is responsible for auditory processing.
8. The limbic system is a collection of structures that are involved in emotion and motivation.
