Function of Human Brain, from a Fecondary School Student’s Perspective - a Review

Introduction: this review article explores the lobes of the brain, along with the different structures present in them such as the sulci, gyri, etc., with their functions, to provide a gentle introduction to a beginner-level reader, who wants to wet their feet in shallow waters before deep diving into the subject. It begins with a note on the basic organization of the brain, peeking into each of those divisions, cerebrum and its lobes, cerebellum and the brainstem while introducing the gyri, sulci and cortices. Further, a brief explanation of some important functional systems like limbic system and basal ganglia, and way to protect the brain is provided.
