Idk if I know this but I should lol Flashcards
Forms a “bridge” between the midbrain and medulla oblogata
Pons
Structure that forms the cerebrospinal fluid
Chroid plexus
Connects the third and fourth ventricles
Cerebral aquaduct
Contains corpora quadridemina
Midbrain
Its outer layer forms the periosteum of the skull
Dura mater
Large fiber tract connecting the cerebral hemispheres
Corpus callosum
Responsible for the regulation of posture and coordination of complex muscular movements
Cerebellum
Contains autonomic centers regulating heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rhythm
Medulla oblongata
Innermost layer covering the brain surface; delicate and highly vascular
Pia mater
Structures that return cerebrospinal fluid to the venous blood in the dural sinuses
Arachnoid villi
Space between the arachnoid and pia maters, filled with cerebrospinal fluid
Subarachnoid space
Important synapse site for most sensory fibers travelling to the cerebral cortex
Thalamus
Site of regulation of body temperature and water balance; controls pituitary function
Hypothalamus
Deep groove that separates the right and left cerebral hemispheres
Longitudinal fissure
