Location of the central sulcus
Separates the parietal and frontal lobes
Location of the parietal occipital sulcus
Separates the occipital and parietal lobes
Location of the somatosensory cortex
Post-central gyrus
Location of the primary motor cortex
Pre-central gyrus
Where is the spinal cord thickened
Cervical and lumbar regions (limb nerves join)

Falx cerebri, Falx cerebelli, Tentorium cerebelli
Function of the falx cerebri
Separate the cerebral hemispheres
Function of the falx cerebelli
Separates the cerebellar hemispheres
Function of the tentorium cerebelli
