Examples of temporal lobe in the following topics:
-
- The cortex is divided into four main lobes: frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal.
- The frontal lobe is an area in the mammalian brain located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned anterior to (in front of) the parietal lobe and superior and anterior to the temporal lobes.
- The temporal lobe is involved in primary auditory perception such as hearing and holds the primary auditory cortex.
- The superior temporal gyrus includes an area where auditory signals from the ear first reach the cerebral cortex and are processed by the primary auditory cortex in the left temporal lobe.
- Distinguish between the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes of the cerebral cortex
-
- Anatomists
conventionally divide each hemisphere
into four lobes: the frontal (control of specialized motor control,
learning, planning, and speech),
parietal (control of somatic sensory functions), occipital (control of
vision), and temporal lobes
(control of hearing and some speech).
- The division into lobes does not
actually arise from the structure of
the cortex itself.
- Found deep in the temporal lobe, the seahorse-shaped hippocampus is responsible for memory.
- The amygdala is a
small, almond-shaped structure deep inside the anteroinferior region of the
temporal lobe.
- Demonstration of brain regions, including the four lobes and internal structures.
-
- The olfactory cortex is located in the uncus, found along
the ventral
surface of the temporal lobe.
- The visual area is
located on the calcarine sulcus deep within the inside folds
of the occipital lobe.
- The primary auditory cortex is located on the
transverse gyri that lie on the back of the superior temporal convolution of
the temporal lobes.
-
- Each
hemisphere of the mammalian cerebral cortex can be broken down into
four functionally and spatially defined lobes: frontal, parietal,
temporal, and occipital.
- The temporal lobe is
located at the base of the brain by the ears.
- The occipital lobe is
located at the back of the brain.
- Motor portions of language
are attributed to Broca's area within the frontal lobe.
- Speech comprehension is
attributed to Wernicke's area, at the temporal-parietal lobe junction.
-
- The temporal bones are
situated at the base and sides of the skull, lateral to the temporal lobes of
the brain.
- The squamosal suture separates the parietal bone and
squama portion of temporal bone.
- The sphenosquamosal suture separates the
sphenoid bone and squama portion of temporal bone.
- Finally, the squamosal suture separates the parietal and temporal bones.
- The greater wings form
the floor of the middle cranial fossa that houses the frontal lobes and pituitary
gland, and also the posterior wall of the orbit.
-
- As the disorder progresses, cognitive (intellectual) impairment extends to the domains of language (aphasia), skilled movements (apraxia), recognition (agnosia), and those functions (such as decision-making and planning) closely related to the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain as they become disconnected from the limbic system, reflecting extension of the underlying pathological process.
-
- The
skull bones that contain foramina include the frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid,
maxilla, palatine, temporal, and occipital lobes.
-
- In contrast to expressive aphasia, damage to the temporal lobe may result in a fluent aphasia that is called receptive aphasia (also known as sensory aphasia and Wernicke's aphasia).
-
- The parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes, all located in the posterior part of the cortex, organize sensory information into a coherent perceptual model of our environment centered on our body image.
- The frontal lobe or prefrontal association complex is involved in planning actions and movement, as well as abstract thought.
- The processes of language expression and reception occur in areas other than just the perisylvian structures such as the prefrontal lobe, basal ganglia, cerebellum, pons, caudate nucleus, and others.
- For example, a patient with a lesion in the parietal-temporal-occipital association area has an agraphia, which means he is unable to write although he has no deficits in motor skills.
-
- The lungs are located on either side of the heart and are separated by fissures into lobes, three in the right and two lobes in the left.
- The right lung is divided into three lobes.
- The upper lobe is the largest lobe of the right lung.
- The middle lobe is the smallest lobe of the right lung, located between the horizontal and oblique fissures.
- The lower lobe is the bottom lobe of the right lung.
