Anatomy Lab Final
choroid plexus location
4th ventricle
choroid plexus function
BBB
makes up cerebral cortex
all 4 lobes not brainstem
why is cerebral cortex folded?
allow a large surface area of neural tissue to fit within the neurocranium
brings sensory and motor info to and from cerebellum
arbor vitae
4th ventricle location
between cerebellum and brain stem
function of brainstem
breathing
location of arbor vitae
cerebellar white matter
layer of cells cannot see
choiroid plexus
lateral ventricles location
different hemispheres and care connected via interventricular foramen
white matter
few cell bodies many myelinated axons deep
separates lobes
fissures
reasoning, motor control, emotion, language
frontal
hills
gyri
signals, frequencies, pitch
inferior colliculus
4 ventricles
lateral 1 lateral 2 3rd 4th
gray matter
many cell bodies few myelinated axons superficial
3rd ventricle location
midline of diencephalon
visual processing area
occipital
somatosensory info (temp, taste, touch)
parietal
brain stem parts
pons medulla cerebellum
parts of midbrain
pons and medulla
valleys
sulci
initiate motor commands
superior colliculus
auditory info, encoding memory
temporal
