Limbic System A set of forebrain structures involved in motivation and emotional expression Hippocampus Part of Limbic, involved in formation of new memories Amygdala Part of Limbic, associated especially with anger and fear, also with recognizing emotion in others Cingulate Gyrus Part of limbic, "re-entrant" layer mediating between cortex and lower systems, especially +/- evaluation Olfactory Bulb Part of Limbic, receives smell info from olfactory receptors Basal Ganglia Forebrain structure including Caudate Nucleus, Putamen, Globus Pallidus- involved in organization of movement sequences. communicates with/through endocrine system Pituitary Gland Forebrain structure, "Master Gland", stimulated by hypothalamus Thalamus Forebrain structure, a principal stop along most sensory, motor, and arousal pathways. Cerebellum Hindbrain structure, involved primarily with guided, timed movements Reticular Formation Network of cells moving medially through hind- and mid-brain, involved in arousal Raphe System Core strip of cells through hind- and mid-brain, involved in sleep Tegmentum Midbrain structure "floor" involved in motor processes Tectum Midbrain structor "roof" involved in sensory processes, includes Superior (visual) and Inferior (auditory) Colliculi Hypothalamus Forebrain structure, oversees 4F's, temp, clock.
