Question

Mention the functions of the cerebrum in human brain.

Answer in Brief

Solution

Functions of the cerebrum in human brain:

  • Thinking and Reasoning: It controls intelligence, decision-making, and problem-solving.
  • Sensory Processing: It interprets sensory information like touch, vision, and hearing.
  • Motor Control: It manages voluntary movements and coordination.
  • Language and Speech: It handles language comprehension and speech production.
  • Memory and Learning: It is involved in storing and retrieving memories and learning new information.
  • Emotions: It regulates emotional responses and behaviour.
  • Movement: Certain areas of your cerebrum send signals that tell your muscles what to do when you need to use them. 
  • Behavior and personality: Part of your cerebrum is your frontal lobe, which manages your personality and behavior. It's the part of your brain that acts as a filter to stop you from doing or saying things you might later regret.
