'''Human brain''' is the central organ of the human [[nervous system]], and with the [[spinal cord]] makes up the central nervous system. The brain consists of the [[cerebrum]], the [[brainstem]] and the [[cerebellum]]. It controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the [[sense organs]], and making decisions as to the instructions sent to the rest of the body.

==Structure==
The human brain is the structure of a human being's [[nervous system]]. It is located in the head, protected by the [[skull]]. It has the same general structure as the brains of other mammals, but is larger than expected on the basis of body size among other primates.

===Cerebrum===
The largest part of the human brain is the cerebrum, which is divided into two [[cerebral hemispheres]]. The cerebral cortex is an outer layer of grey matter, covering the core of white matter. The cortex is split into the [[neocortex]] and the much smaller [[allocortex]].

===Brainstem===
The brainstem is the posterior part of the brain, continuous with the spinal cord. In the human brain, the brainstem includes the [[midbrain]], and the [[pons]] and [[medulla oblongata]] of the hindbrain.

===Cerebellum===
The cerebellum is a large structure located at the back of the brain, to which it is connected by a set of tracks. It is involved in the coordination of movements and to motor learning.

==Function==
The brain controls the other organ systems of the body, either by activating muscles or by causing secretion of chemicals such as hormones. This centralized control allows rapid and coordinated responses to changes in the environment.
