AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -[1] The frontal lobe, located anteriorly to the central sulcus, is responsible for voluntary motor function, problem-solving, attention, memory, and language. Located in the frontal lobe are the motor cortex and the Broca area.

Detailed explanation-2: -Motor commands are not initiated in the cerebellum; rather, the cerebellum modifies the motor commands of the descending pathways to make movements more adaptive and accurate. The cerebellum is involved in the following functions: Maintenance of balance and posture.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three functional areas of the cerebellum – the cerebrocerebellum, the spinocerebellum and the vestibulocerebellum. Cerebrocerebellum – the largest division, formed by the lateral hemispheres. It is involved in planning movements and motor learning.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cerebellum. The cerebellum is located at the back of the brain beneath the occipital lobes. It is separated from the cerebrum by the tentorium (fold of dura). The cerebellum fine tunes motor activity or movement, e.g. the fine movements of fingers as they perform surgery or paint a picture.

Detailed explanation-5: -Your cerebellum is part of your brain that helps coordinate and regulate a wide range of functions and processes in both your brain and body. While it’s very small compared to your brain overall, it holds more than half of the neurons (cells that make up your nervous system) in your whole body.
