Hippocampal Anatomy Flashcards
what are the two types of memory
explicit (declarative)
Implicit (non-declarative)
where is the location of the hippocampus
located inside the temporal lobe
what is the parahippocampal gyrus
cortical tissue ventral to the hippocampus
what separates the hippocampus from the rest of the temporal lobe
the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle
what is the alveus
axons from the subiculum and hippocampus that come together to form the fimbria
what are the developmental phases of the hippocampus
1) hippocampus is between the dentate and the subiculum
2) temporal cortex expands, which makes the hippocampus curl and fold in on itself; this gives the hippocampus its C shape
3) Dentate area pulls away and forms a curved shape facing the hippocampus
where do information areas of the neocortex project to
parahippocampal (where) and parirhinal (what) corticies
where does the parahippocampal and perirhinal cortices project to
entorhinal cortex
