Which part of the brain is responsible for balance coordination and some aspects of emotion?
The cerebellum is at the back of the brain, below the cerebrum. It's a lot smaller than the cerebrum. But it's a very important part of the brain. It controls balance, movement, and coordination (how your muscles work together).
What part of the brain controls balance?
Cerebellum: Sensing how to balance.
What part of brain development is responsible for memory attention and processing speed?
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a central role in cognitive control functions, and dopamine in the PFC modulates cognitive control, thereby influencing attention, impulse inhibition, prospective memory, and cognitive flexibility.
What does the cerebrum control?
As a whole, the cerebrum is responsible for: Initiating and coordinating movement. Thinking, reasoning, problem-solving. Emotions and learning.
