Thymus. The thymus is a lymphoid gland comprised of two identically sized lobes, located behind the sternum (breastbone) but in front of the heart. It derives its name from a resemblance it bears to the bud of the thyme plant (thymus in Latin). At puberty, the thymus reaches the height of its use, becoming its largest.
Temporal Lobes: These lobes are located directly inferior to the parietal lobes and posterior to the frontal lobes. The temporal lobes are involved in a multitude of functions including speech, auditory processing, language comprehension, and emotional responses.
