True
What are the 3 primary vesicles that arise from the anterior end of the neural tube
Prosencephalon, Mesencephalon, Rhombencephalon
What 2 secondary brain vesicles are the Prosencephalon broken into?
Telencephalon and Diencephalon
Does the mesencephalon give rise to a different secondary brain vesicle?
No, it is still called the Mesencephalon
What 2 secondary brain vesicles does the Rhombencephalon divide into?
Metencephalon and Myelencephalon
What brain structures come from the Telencephalon?
Cerebrum: cerebral hemispheres (cortex, white matter, and basal nuclei)
What brain structure comes from the Diencephalon?
Diencephalon (thalamus, hypothalamus, epithalamus) and and Retina
