Q

What is the rombencephalon?

A
  • lizard brain–the oldest brain.
  • the hind brain or brainstem. this is the part of the brain that regulates our most basic functions: temperature, breathing, heart rate. also regulates alertness & reflexes
  • not voluntary planning or executing, just movement

hindbrain=brainstem

Q

what is the mesencephalon?

A

midbrain

it’s a massive collection of white matter pathways that carry information from the body to the forebrain/cerebrum

17
Q

What is the prosencephalon?

A

the newest brain

the forebrain–cerebrum/cerebral cortex

this is the brain as we know it today.

the cerebral cortex is divided into two hemispheres & six lobes

18
Q

What are the six lobes of the brain?

A

frontal lobe

parietal lobe

occipital lobe

temporal lobe

limbic lobe

insular lobe

19
Q

What is the fissure of Rolando?

A

separates the frontal cortex from the parietal cortex

20
Q

What is the longitudinal fissure?

A

separates left from right

21
Q

What is the parieto-occipital sulcus?

A

separates the parietal and occipital cortex

22
Q

what is the cingulate sulcus?

A

the cortex matter that wraps the limbic lobe
