THE CEREBRUM Flashcards
What are the 3 parts of THE CEREBRUM
Cortex
Lobe Sensory Functions
Limbic System
Surface layer of nonmyelinated neurons that occur in folds (convolutions) called GYRI
Cortex
The grooves separating these gyri are known
as _________ .
SULCI
Primary Motor Center—Precentral gyrus (in front of central fissure) Controls the movement of each body part
Cortex-
Primary Sensory Area—Postcentral gyrus (behind the central fissure) Interprets sensations for each body part
Cortex
The Primary Motor Center(PMC’s) & Primary Sensory Area(PSA’s) functions are mapped
out with a _________ .
homunculus
