Functions of different brain parts:

1. Forebrain:

  1. The "thinking section" of the brain is what it's called.
  2. The forebrain is in charge of processing sensory information as well as controlling voluntary activities.
  3. The most essential component of the brain is the cerebrum.
  4. It is the most important portion of the brain, and it is linked to thought and action.

2. Mid-Brain:

  1. It serves as a link between the forebrain and the hindbrain, transmitting impulses from the latter to the former.
  2. It also plays a role in vision, hearing, body temperature regulation, and attentiveness.

3. Hind Brain:

It is the visceral function control center, which controls the heart's function, heartbeat, breathing rate, blood pressure, sleeping, and other bodily functions.

4. Cerebellum:

  1. The region of the brain is responsible for movement control.
  2. It is involved in maintaining homeostasis, synchronizing body balance, eye movements, body posture, and other subtle changes to motor motions while walking, running, standing, swimming, and other activities.
