A) Alpha How would you describe the cerebrum?The largest part of the brain. It is divided into two hemispheres, or halves, called the cerebral hemispheres. Areas within the cerebrum control muscle functions and also control speech, thought, emotions, reading, writing, and learning.
What is the cerebrum known for?Your cerebrum is the largest part of your brain and includes parts above and forward of your cerebellum. Your cerebrum is the part of your brain that starts and manages conscious thoughts; meaning, things that you actively think about or do.
What is in the cerebrum?The cerebrum consists of the cerebral hemispheres and accounts for two-thirds of the total weight of the brain. One hemisphere, usually the left, is functionally dominant, controlling language and speech. The other hemisphere interprets visual and spatial information.
What is the cerebrum quizlet?The cerebrum is the largest portion of the brain. It is the most superior and anterior portion. It consists of the right and left hemispheres which are separated by the falx cerebri. The cerebrum is associated with higher brain function such as thought and action.
