AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The frontal lobe’s functions primarily involve ‘higher’ cognitive functions such as decision-making, conscious thought, problem-solving, and attention.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main parts of the brain involved with memory are the amygdala, the hippocampus, the cerebellum, and the prefrontal cortex. The amygdala is involved in fear and fear memories. The hippocampus is associated with declarative and episodic memory as well as recognition memory.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most of the brain’s cortex-the major portion of each of the four lobes-is devoted to uncommitted association areas, which integrate info involved in higher mental functions such as learning, remembering, thinking, and speaking.

Detailed explanation-4: -The frontal lobes are the largest of the four lobes responsible for many different functions. These include motor skills such as voluntary movement, speech, intellectual and behavioral functions. The areas that produce movement in parts of the body are found in the primary motor cortex or precentral gyrus.

Detailed explanation-5: -The role of the prefrontal cortex in higher cognitive functions.
