The Cerebrum

With the assistance of the cerebellum, the cerebrum controls all voluntary actions in the body.

The cortex is divided into four main lobes: frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal.

White matter is composed of myelinated axons and glia and connects distinct areas of the cortex.

The basal ganglia is important for initiating planned movements and forming habits, both referred to as 'behavior selection' or 'switching'.

The limbic system makes up the inner border of the cortex and is vital for emotion, motivation, and memory.
