The major sensory inputs from the skin touch , temperature , and pain receptors , relay through the thalamus to the parietal lobe. Several areas of the parietal lobe are important in language processing. The somatosensory cortex can be illustrated as a distorted figure — the homunculus Latin: A lesion commonly in the right superior or inferior parietal lobule leads to hemineglect.
The occipital lobe is the visual processing center of the mammalian brain containing most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex.
Human V1 is located on the medial side of the occipital lobe within the calcarine sulcus ; the full extent of V1 often continues onto the posterior pole of the occipital lobe. V1 is often also called striate cortex because it can be identified by a large stripe of myelin, the Stria of Gennari. Visually driven regions outside V1 are called extrastriate cortex. There are many extrastriate regions, and these are specialized for different visual tasks, such as visuospatial processing, color differentiation, and motion perception. The temporal lobe is located beneath the lateral fissure on both cerebral hemispheres of the mammalian brain.
The temporal lobe is involved in processing sensory input into derived meanings for the appropriate retention of visual memories , language comprehension , and emotion association. The limbic lobe is an arc-shaped region of cortex on the medial surface of each cerebral hemisphere of the mammalian brain, consisting of parts of the frontal, parietal and temporal lobes.
The term is ambiguous, with some authors [ who? The insular cortex is a portion of the cerebral cortex folded deep within the lateral sulcus the fissure separating the temporal lobe from the parietal and frontal lobes. The insulae are believed to be involved in consciousness and play a role in diverse functions usually linked to emotion or the regulation of the body's homeostasis. These functions include perception , motor control , self-awareness , cognitive functioning , and interpersonal experience.

So here I am sitting in a holiday house by the seaside, my kids are finally asleep, my wife is back home, and it's raining and cold outside. As the sequel to, "The Sixth Lobe," Danny Wilson returns to America after a long separation meant to keep him out of harms way. We all agree on the 4 of them. The lobes of the brain were originally a purely anatomical classification, but have been shown also to be related to different brain functions.
In relation to these, it is involved in psychopathology. The insular cortex is divided into two parts: The cortical area overlying the insula toward the lateral surface of the brain is the operculum meaning lid. The opercula are formed from parts of the enclosing frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article needs additional citations for verification.

Written in the present tense, and seemed awkward. Needed help with punctuation and spelling. Had two detectives, Dombroski and Sikorski.
