Brain stem has 3 parts:\n\n1. Midbrain.. Controls:\nNerve pathway of cerebral hemispheres.\n\nAuditory and Visual reflex centers.\n\nCranial Nerves:\n\nCN III - Oculomotor (Related to eye movement), [motor]. \nCN IV - Trochlear (Superior oblique muscle of the eye which rotates the eye down and out), [motor]. \n\n2. Pons... Controls: \n Respiratory Center.\n\nCranial Nerves:\n\nCN V - Trigeminal (Skin of face, tongue, teeth; muscle of mastication), [motor and sensory]. \nCN VI - Abducens (Lateral rectus muscle of eye which rotates eye outward), [motor]. \nCN VII - Facial (Muscles of expression), [motor and sensory]. \nCN VIII - Acoustic (Internal auditory passage), [sensory].  \n\n3. Medulla Oblongata... Controls:\nCrossing of motor tracts.\n\nCardiac Center.\n\nRespiratory Center.\n\nVasomotor (nerves having muscular control of the blood vessel walls) Center \n\nCenters for cough, gag, swallow, and vomit.\n\nCranial Nerves:\n\nCN IX - Glossopharyneal (Muscles and mucous membranes of pharynx, the constricted openings from the mouth and the oral pharynx and the posterior third of tongue.), [mixed]. \nCN X - Vagus (Pharynx, larynx, heart, lungs, stomach), [mixed]. \nCN XI - Accessory (Rotation of the head and shoulder), [motor]. \nCN XII - Hypoglossal (Intrinsic muscles of the tongue), [motor].

We do use our brains but there are many functions of the brain remains unknown and not discovered.Some of the percentage makes up the mass of water,blood vessels,white blood cells...Who knows in ancient times we 've got telepathic ability?=P

1) FOOD\nEver heard the saying "You are what you eat"? Well this is especialy true when it comes to the brain.\n\nFish is indeed brain food:\nOmega-3 fatty acids, in particular docosahexaenoic acid or DHA, which can be found in fish like Salmon and tuna\n\n2) EXERCISE\nThe brain is a exremly greedy organ acounting for about 20% of oxygen usage in the huuman body.\n\nTry doing about 30 minutes worth of cardiovascular exercise before studing.\n\n3) SLEEP\nSleep is fundementaly important to converting short term memories into long term memories.

1. amnionic membrane, contains, pressure, shock, movement, temperature\n2. planceta\n\nFunction of the Planceta\n1. oxygen, nutrients\n2. wastes (like carbon dioxide)\n3. can't rmeber this one sorry\n4. plancenta does that

This is a really complicated question.  Personality is a concept that invloves several different things.  As far as where the parts of the brain that is used during thinking and some emotions, this is mostly the frontal lobe (and probably more specifically the prefrontal cortex).  That said, the brain is full of connections to all sorts of areas and something like personality is so broad that it would cover many different sections of the brain.

The brain stem is the stalk of the brain below the cerebral hemispheres. It is the major route for communication between the forebrain, the spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. It controls various autonomic functions such as respiration and the regulation of heart rhythms as well as perceptual functions such as the primary aspects of sound localization.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_stem

There are important structures in the base brain that control breathing, metabolism and other essential life sustaining issues.\n\nThe frontal is more Analytical thinking, refraining from saying odd things.  Emotional stuff.

Not too sure if you're interested in this type of stuff. http://www.getbodysmart.com\nhttp://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/brain/brshpx.htm\nalso the bbc.uk website has some interactive stuff where you have to match the parts to where they belong.

im taking psych 1010 right now, and what we learned is that if you can figure out how the mind and nervous system work we can help figure out why we as people do the things we do. like sudying the nervous system helps explain our reactions, emotions, and studying the parts of the brain helps us to know how we control our speech, motor skills, and many other things. it is kind of a building block for everything else. i hope this helps

Your mind is within yr body! \nThat's one thing. \nBut mind controls yr thoughts, yr memory, movements of yr body parts(locomotor function), controls sensory perceptions, sectrets substances that will allow hormones to be released-that's another way to control metabolism of cells and lots more.....\nBut still you can not separate Mind and Body !

No - the brain is an organ. However, you can "exercise" it by learning new things and solving problems.  Keeping your brain active helps to stimulate new brain cells and possibly fight dementia in later years.

yes my dear insects have brain in the form of nerve complexes a network which seem to be like brain and what is the purpose of having a brain that is they are also organism every organism has need to think over its certain life time activities brain help them to coordinate their body with all parts and tell them abt all the physiological functions to be performed at different times

Brain is the portion of the vertebrate central nervous system that is enclosed within the cranium, continuous with the spinal cord, and composed of gray matter and white matter. It is the primary center for the regulation and control of bodily activities, receiving and interpreting sensory impulses, and transmitting information to the muscles and body organs. It is also the seat of consciousness, thought, memory, and emotion. \nA functionally similar portion of the invertebrate nervous system. \n\nIntellectual ability; mind: a dull brain; a quick brain. \n\nMind the capacity of thinking, reasoning, and acquiring and applying knowledge. Mind refers broadly to the capacities for thought, perception, memory, and decision: “No passion so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear” (Edmund Burke). Intellect stresses knowing, thinking, and understanding: “Opinion is ultimately determined by the feelings, and not by the intellect” (Herbert Spencer). Intelligence implies solving problems, learning from experience, and reasoning abstractly: “The world of the future will be an ever more demanding struggle against the limitations of our intelligence” (Norbert Wiener). Brain suggests strength of intellect: We racked our brains to find a solution. Wit stresses quickness of intelligence or facility of comprehension: “There is no such whetstone, to sharpen a good wit and encourage a will to learning, as is praise” (Roger Ascham). Reason, the capacity for logical, rational, and analytic thought, embraces comprehending, evaluating, and drawing conclusions: “Since I have had the full use of my reason, nobody has ever heard me laugh” (Earl of Chesterfield). The human consciousness that originates in the brain and is manifested especially in thought, perception, emotion, will, memory, and imagination. \nThe collective conscious and unconscious processes in a sentient organism that direct and influence mental and physical behavior. \nThe principle of intelligence; the spirit of consciousness regarded as an aspect of reality. \nThe faculty of thinking, reasoning, and applying knowledge
