Association Areas
1. Areas within the brain that communicate using interneurons.
2. Full of NEURAL Networks, or series of connected neurons that connect at the synapse and grow in strength as you practice and/or learn.

Association Areas More intelligent animals have increased
“uncommitted” or association areas of the cortex

Language Centers
1. Broca’s Area: Broca/Boca
Works with muscles, face and jaw to produce speech. Located in left, frontal lobe.
If it’s damaged, we can’t SPEAK.
2. Wernicke’s Area
Works to help us understand language. Located in left, temporal lobe.
If it’s damaged, we can’t COMPREHEND.
3. Angular Gyrus:
Responsible for turning written words into auditory form so that we can read language. Located between Wernicke’s and Broca’s areas in left hemisphere.
If it’s damaged, we can’t READ.

The Cerebral Cortex Aphasia
impairment of language, usually caused by left hemisphere damage either to Broca’s area (impairing speaking) or to Wernicke’s area (impairing understanding)
Broca’s Area (Disrupts speaking) an area of the left frontal lobe that directs the
muscle movements involved in speech Wernicke’s Area (Disrupts understanding)
an area of the left temporal lobe involved in language comprehension and expression

Corpus Callosum large band of
neural fibers connects the
two brain hemispheres

messengers are hormones, rather than neurotransmitters
Messages travel through the bloodstream

Diagnosis BRAIN!!
What part(s) of the brain are damaged?
Discuss and evaluate as a team using your notes, knowledge, and super duper association
areas.

Mr. Livingston Mr. Livingston is a 39 year-old
African-American male who has been brought into your neurology clinic by his wife. She has become increasingly alarmed regarding her husband’s health over the past four months. Upon completion of CT scans, it is determined that Mr. Livingston’s condition is the result of the presence of two tumors that have developed in his brain. Using this patient’s medical history below, determine where these two tumors are probably located.

Mr. Livingston’s Symptoms Muscle weakness Vastly increased appetite (gained 25 lbs) Inappropriate body temp fluctuations Jerky movements Decreased sexual desire Poor balance when walking and standing Increased urination Inability to throw objects Inappropriate sleeping patterns Exaggerated efforts to coordinate movements when
completing a task.

Shooting Victim At 1:30 a.m. you (a trauma surgeon) are
called for emergency surgery on a 17 year old Caucasian female that was shot in the head during a drive-by shooting. After tedious surgery, the patient remarkably remains alive and doing reasonably well. The bullet traveled completely through the skull leaving a path of destroyed tissue behind. You have decided to speak with the parents about what noticeable changes will occur in their daughter due to the destruction of the neural tissue. Based on the information below, determine the approximate path the bullet traveled (i.e., what structures were damaged).

Symptoms Limb numbness Inability to control movement in the left
shoulder, arm, forearm, and hand. Slow, laborious, nonfluent speech Inability to sound out words Difficulty finding appropriate words to use Irrational anger Easily startled and irritated by loud noises Reacts fearfully to sudden movements or
changes in her environment
