The main cell type which produces the CSF is
Ependymal cell
The aqueduct of sylvius connects the
Third and fourth ventricles
The fourth ventricle arises from the
Metencephalon
Swelling of the optic disc due to raised intracranial pressure is known as a
Papilledema
Brodmann areas 41 and 42 are important for what sensation
Audition
Wernicke’s area includes the
Inferior parietal lobule and the superior temporal gyrus
This cortical area is involved in the control of visual attention and eye movements
Frontal eye field
The fissure of Ronaldo separates the
The precentral gyrus from the posterior central gyrus
What is the function of the primary motor cortex
controls posture during movement
controls coordination between body parts on both sides of the body
and controls sequences of motor movements
What occurs in broca’s area?
Speech comprehension and production
What is wernike’s area important for?
comprehension of speech
