Question

Match the words in Column A with Column B.

Column 1	Column 2
Cerebrum	Maintains balance
Cerebellum	All mixed
Medulla oblongata	Intelligence
Spinal nerves	Sensory, motor, mixed
Sympathetic nerves	Controls involuntary actions
Cranial nerves	The point of contact between two nerves
Synapse	Prepare for violent action

Answer 1

A. Cerebrum- III. Intelligence

1. The cerebrum is the largest portion of the brain taking up to two-thirds of the entire region.
2. It is associated with memory, intelligence, reasoning thinking, planning, etc.

B. Cerebellum- I. Maintains balance

1. The cerebellum is a small portion of the hindbrain situated below the cerebrum.
2. It helps in maintaining balance and coordinating muscular activities.

C.Medulla oblongata- V. Controls involuntary actions

1. The medulla oblongata is the lowest portion of the brain.
2. It modulates internal involuntary functions like sneezing, breathing, beating of the heartbeat, swallowing, sleep, coughing, etc.

D. Spinal nerves- II. All mixed

1. The spinal nerves arise from the spinal cord.
2. They consist of sensory and motor fibers, hence mixed in nature.

E. Sympathetic nerves- VII. Prepare for violent action

1. The sympathetic nervous system is a part of the autonomic nervous system that controls the involuntary functions of the body.
2. It prepares the body to react to abnormal conditions.

F. Cranial nerves- IV. Sensory, motor, mixed

1. The cranial nerves arise from the brain.
2. They are either sensory, motor, or mixed in nature.

G. Synapse - VI. The point of contact between two nerves

1. The synapse is the point of contact between two nerves or between a nerve and a tissue.
