begin the lab
Lab
• As you complete the dissection, imagine you are Galen in the 2nd century – you see the anatomy, but can you imagine physiologically what these parts do?
• What clues could you use to figure out what the different parts of the brain do?
Key Differences• Size – Human brain is larger– 1400 grams vs. 140 grams
• Shape – elongated vs. circular• Humans – larger prefrontal
cortex– Complex cognitive behavior,
personality, decision making, executive functioning
• Humans – more ridges and contours of cerebrum– Increased surface, increased
efficiency, more neurons
• Sheep – larger olfactory bulb– Responsible for smell
• Sheep – larger pineal gland– Responsible for reproduction and
circadian rhythms
• Frontal Lobe- associated with reasoning, planning, parts of speech, movement, emotions, and problem solving
• Parietal Lobe- associated with movement, orientation, recognition, perception of stimuli
• Occipital Lobe- associated with visual processing
• Temporal Lobe- associated with perception and recognition of auditory stimuli, memory, and speech

Organizing Your Sources
• Go to Google Drive• Open your shared History folder• Create a new folder – “Research Project”• Create a new document – “Last Name –
Sources”• Every source you take notes on, put a complete
citation in MLA format in this document.– Don’t number your sources, use letters– First source is A, then B, and so onFOR MORE INFO ON HOW TO CITE IN MLA FORMAT, SEE THE
SUBFOLDER IN THE RESEARCH PAPER RESOURCES FOLDER ON MOODLE
Introducing Research Note Cards
