Question

Describe functional areas of the cerebrum with the help of a neat and labelled diagram.

Accepted Answer

The functional areas of the cerebrum are:

Frontal lobe: It consists of the motor area which controls voluntary activities. Broca's area is a model speech area that translates thoughts into speech and controls the movements of the tongue, lips and vocal cords. The association area related to intelligence, memory, judgement and problem-solving is found in the frontal lobe.

Parietal lobe: The general sensory area associated with the sensation of temperature, touch, pressure, pain and speech is located on the post-central gyrus of the parietal lobe.

Temporal lobe: Areas concerned with the sense of taste, sense of hearing and sense of smell are located on the temporal lobe.

Occipital lobe: It carries the sensory visual area concerned with the sense of vision and the association visual area for perception, analysis and storage of information obtained by sight.
