Detailed explanation-1: -The frontal lobe is the most anterior (front) part of the brain. It extends from the area behind the forehead back to the precentral gyrus. As a whole, the frontal lobe is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as memory, emotions, impulse control, problem solving, social interaction, and motor function.
Detailed explanation-2: -The frontal lobe is generally where higher executive functions including emotional regulation, planning, reasoning and problem solving occur.
Detailed explanation-3: -The frontal lobes are important for voluntary movement, expressive language and for managing higher level executive functions. Executive functions refer to a collection of cognitive skills including the capacity to plan, organise, initiate, self-monitor and control one’s responses in order to achieve a goal.
Detailed explanation-4: -Substructures of the Frontal Lobe. The frontal lobe contains the motor cortex, which is involved in planning and coordinating movement; the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for higher-level cognitive functioning; and Broca’s area, which is essential for language production.
Detailed explanation-5: -The role of the prefrontal cortex in higher cognitive functions.
