Practical #2 Flashcards
4 Divisions of the brain
cerebrum, diencephalon, brainstem, cerebellum (cerebrum and diencephalon collectively are the forebrain)
Cerebral Cortex
Is seen if brain is sliced in frontal plan and is the thin layer covering the outer surface of the cerebrum. Portion of the gray matter of the brain.
Basal Ganglia. Deep in the cerebral hemispheres of the cerebrum. Collection of gray matter.
Gyri, sulci and fissures.
In the cerebrum. Gyri are raised ridges, sulci are deep clefts between the ridges and fissures are even deeper clefts between major divisions of the cerebrum.
Frontal Lobe. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Central Sulcus. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Parietal Lobe. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Temporal Lobe. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Occipital Lobe. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Lateral Sulcus (fissure). Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Longitudinal Fissure. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Precentral Gyrus. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Postcentral Gyrus. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Corpus callosum. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Thalamus and Third Ventricle. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Hypothalamus. Section is Cerebrum and diencephalon
Midbrain. Section is Brain Stem.
Cerebral Aqueduct. Part of Midbrain. Section is brain stem.
Inferior Colliculus. Part of the midbrain. Section is brain stem.
Superior colliculus. Part of midbrain. section is brain stem.
Pons. Section is brain stem.
Medulla oblongata. Section is brain stem.
Fourth ventricle. Section is brain stem.
Cerebellum
Pineal Body. Section is cerebrum and diencephalon.
Mamillary Bodies. Section is cerebrum and diencephalon.
Interventricular Foramen. Section is cerebrum and diencephalon. Connects the third ventricle to the lateral ventricles.
Lateral Ventricle. Section is cerebrum and diencephalon.
Fluffy stuff on the floor of the lateral ventricle.
Choroid plexus.
Name the meninges of the brain.
Dura mater. Between the cerebral hemispheres it forms teh falx cerebri and between the cerebrum and cerebellum it forms the tentorium cerebelli.
