Parietal lobe
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-008473
A major division of the brain located behind the frontal lobe and above the temporal lobe. It is primarily involved in processing sensory information from the body, including touch, temperature, pain, and pressure, and integrating it with other sensory inputs. Damage to this lobe can impair spatial awareness and navigation.
