â¢ Students can identify the lobes of the cerebral cortex: frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal. â¢ Students can explain the functions of the major brain parts. â¢ Students can identify the components of a neuron: cell body, dendrites, and axon. â¢ Students can explain the process of neurotransmission.MAJOR PARTS OF THE BRAIN Cerebral CortexThe cerebral cortex is the largest part of the human brain, making up more than 75 percent of this organ.
