✅
bridge of nerve- The two hemispheres are connected by a(n) ________
fibers that relay information between the two hemispheres called the
corpus callosum.
✅
sensory input- Responsible for receiving and processing ________ from
the skin, muscles, tendons, joints, eyes, tongue, nose and ears as well as
excite the voluntary contraction of skeletal muscles.
Neurons- ✅________- They are also called nerve cells.

Brain Stem- ✅________: Made up of the midbrain; Pons and the medulla
oblongata.
✅
Pons- ________: Located between the midbrain and the medulla
oblongata.
