Brain Structure - GCSE Biology

🦊 In this GCSE Biology video, we explain that the brain comprises billions of interconnected neurons with various structures, each serving distinct functions. It highlights the cerebral cortex, the brain's outer layer responsible for higher functions like reasoning and emotions, and contrasts it with other key structures like the cerebellum, which is involved in balance and muscle coordination, and the medulla, located within the brainstem, responsible for unconscious activities such as breathing and heart rate.
