The spinal cord is a single structure, whereas the adult brain is described in terms of four major regions: the cerebrum, the diencephalon, the brain stem, and the cerebellum. A person’s conscious experiences are based on neural activity in the brain. The regulation of homeostasis is governed by a specialized region in the brain.

For example, damage to specific areas of the brain, such as that caused by a head injury or cerebrovascular accidents (i.e., strokes), can cause specific deficits in speech, facial movements, or use of the extremities.

The cerebrum is divided into different regions called lobes: frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal and insula. Each lobe performs a specialized function through their cerebral cortex. Overall, the functions of the cerebrum are motor initiation and coordination, processing of general and special senses, and high level functions such as judgment, reasoning, problem solving, and learning.

The nerves of the autonomic nervous system originate in the spinal cord and pass out between the vertebrae to serve the various organs (see diagram 14.10).There are two main parts to the autonomic nervous system—the sympathetic system and the parasympathetic system.
