Cerbral Hemisphere Flashcards
Border between lateral & medial surfaces
Medial or superomedial border
Border between lateral & inferior surfaces
Inferolateral border
Border between inferior & medial surfaces
Inferiomedial border
Lateral or superolateral lateral surface
Convex and related to the brain
Medial surface
Flat & ventrical and related to falx cerebri & median longitudinal fissure
Inferior surfaces
Divided into the orbital and tentorial parts by the lateral sulcus
Surface of each hemisphere has numerous ___
Folds called GYRI
The folds (gyri) are separated by __
Grooves called sulcus
Separates the frontal lobe from parietal lobe
Central sulcus
Separates the temporal lobe from the frontal and parietal lobes
Lateral sulcus
Separates the occipital lobe from the parietal lobe on the medial surface
Parieto-occipital sulcus
Frontal lobe is Located in
Precentral gyrus
Frontal lobe controls
Voluntary & skilled movement
On the lateral surface of PREMOTOR CORTEX includes
Posterior part of superior, middle and inferior frontal gyri
On the medial surface of PREMOTOR CORTEX includes
Supplementary motor cortex
Frontal eye field is located in
Middle frontal gyrus
Frontal eye field controls
Voluntary conjugate deviation of the eyes
Frontal eye field damage causes
Deviation of the eyes towards the side of the lesions
Broca’s area is located in
inferior frontal gyrus of the dominant hemisphere
Broca’s area is involved in
Language function
Broca’s motor area is connected with parts of
ipsilateral temporal, parietal and occipital lobes
Prefrontal cortex extensive region of the
Frontal lobe anterior to premotor area
