There are two almond looking situated bi-laterally (each side of brain) called the amygdala
which is the seat of emotions. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is located in the very front of the brain, just behind the forehead. In charge of abstract thinking and thought analysis, it is also responsible for regulating behavior. I call it the "seat of good manners"
"This includes mediating conflicting thoughts, making choices between right and wrong, and predicting the probable outcomes of actions or events. This brain area also governs social control, such as suppressing emotional or sexual urges. Since the prefrontal cortex is the brain center responsible for taking in data through the body's senses and deciding on actions, it is most strongly implicated in human qualities like consciousness, general intelligence, and personality."
Although I had a picture to post they say I need 5 post....I met the 5 and cannot post the picture. I am sorry.
