After Greg's serious motorcycle accident, doctors detected damage to his cerebellum. Greg is most likely to have difficulty:

• breathing, balance and heart rate
• temperature, breathing, and balance
• breathing, heart rate, and coordination
• temperature, breathing, and heart rate

Wrinkled part of the brain's surface where the body processes information

• Forebrain
• Cerebral Cortex
• Corpus Callosum
• Cerebellum

Known as the "Little Brain" and is in charge of balance and coordinating movements

• Thalamus
• Reticular Formation
• Hypothalamus
• Cerebellum

This structure helps pass information between the two hemispheres of the brain.

• corpus callosum
• hypothalamus
• pons
• amygdala

The major part of the brain that controls higher mental activities such as learning and making decisions

• cerebellum
• cerebrum
• thalamus
• midbrain

You actually do 'have eyes in the back of your head' because this region of the brain responsible for visual processing is right above the cerebellum!

• occipital lobe
• gyri

The frontal lobe controls

• memory, behavior, thinking
• memory, touch, movement 
• language, personality, thinking, memory
• movement, emotion, speech, smell, and personality
