The most important part of the brain to me is the hippocampus. It is located in the
temporal lobe and is used for long–term memory of both personal and factual
knowledge. This is important in my eyes because the remembrance of personal
outcomes shapes the way everyone is today. We as humans also learn from
others and their personal outcomes.
The prefrontal cortex is my favorite part of the brain because it controls the
executive functions, emotions, and the personality of a human. Behavioral
expression and decision making fall into the job of the prefrontal cortex. It is
important that humans can freely express themselves emotionally to release
thoughts and energy. Decision making is highly important too. Whether it be
positive or negative. The decisions and outcomes of the prefrontal cortex ties into
the hippocampus which the human learns and remembers.
