Lobes of the Brain.

Lobes of the brain are sections in the brain. The human brain is considered the most complex organ in the body and is one of the main parts of the central nervous system. The largest and principal part of the brain is the cerebrum. The cerebrum is divided in half into roughly mirrored hemispheres, each of which is divided into sections based on the locations of major anatomical features. These sections, or lobes, of the brain are anatomically unique and responsible for different functions. However, brain lobes are not physically separate. They are physically connected by neural tissues or by neural nerve pathways, and, in this way, they function together to process and understand the stimuli transmitted through the nervous system. The lobes of the brain make possible various neurological functions that range from perceiving auditory and visual sensations—seeing and hearing—to reasoning and decision-making processes.
