Human brain. Computer artwork of the human brain showing the internal structures. The corpus callosum, which facilitates communication between the hemispheres, is yellow. At centre is the putamen (red), which regulates movements and influences learning. The hipoocampus, which has roles in long-term memory and spatial memory, is purple. The amygdalae, which have roles in memory and emotional reaction, are pink. At bottom is the brainstem (green and blue), which controls automatic functions, sleep and arousal and relays messages from the brain to the spinal cord. The olfactory nerves (left, green) carry scent information from the nose to the brain.
