THIS MEANS YOU WILL REVIEW THREE BRAIN AREAS IN TOTAL!

Provide an overview of the following for each area:

·         Name

·         General function

·         Behavioral changes when area is damaged

·         Fun fact and picture (supported by something you find on the Internet from a reputable source - provide the citation and reference).

The entire post should be at least 100 words in length. Remember to write using complete sentences. In your replies to peers, choose a post with an area you did not discuss. Provide another fun fact for one of your peer’s areas (with a citation and reference).
