The brain is the most vital organ in the body, without the brain, life would not be possible. It recieves infomation from many sources and processes them to produce appropriate reponses. It can be divided into three different components, the cerebral cortex, the midbrain and the brainstem.

The brain is located within the skull, for protection.
