Question

Identify the functions of the brain.


passes information to and from the cerebrum

is responsible for higher-level thinking skills

helps maintain homeostasis; regulates body temperature

Answer 1

Here are the parts that match those functions:

- "Passes information to and from the cerebrum" — primarily the brainstem (and the thalamus acts as a major relay for sensory/motor signals to the cortex).
- "Is responsible for higher-level thinking skills" — the cerebrum (cerebral cortex).
- "Helps maintain homeostasis; regulates body temperature" — the hypothalamus.
