Forebrain
|
Telencephalon
Diencephalon for human behavior, mostly look at telenceph/diencephalon |
|
Telencephalon
|
grey matter seen on corex- 6 layers
|
|
Basal Ganglia
Striatum Lentiform |
Cuadate, Putamen, G.P.
cuadate+putamen putamen+G.P. |
|
Cortical Striate Fibers
|
fibers from multipe layers of the cortex. travel from cortex to the striatum
|
|
Extrapyramidal Multiple Pathways
|
from the striatum back to corex and down the SC to Coordinate 4 limbs
Lenticular, Ansilar, Thalamic Fasicularis |
|
Diencephalon
Sulcus Limitans |
Made up of Thalmus
sep dorsal and ventral thalmus |
|
Dorsal Thalmus
Ventral Thalmus |
sensory
motor (hypothalmus, autonomic) -sometimes assoc w/ Basal Gang |
|
Metathalmus
|
contain lateral (optic) and medial (auditory) geniculate
|
|
Epithalmus
|
post commissure and pineal gland(sometimes)
|
|
Midbrain(mesencephalon)
|
not elaborated upon in man-more developed in lower species
supcollic-visual reflexes infcollic-auditory reflexes |
|
Hindbrain(rhombencephalon)
|
metencephalon- cerebellum, pons
myelencephalon-medulla, SC |
|
Limbic Lobe
|
border b/w Telenceph and Diencph
Telencephalic structures 1. amygdala 2. hippocampus 3. cingulate gyrus 4. HC gyrus |
|
what does the limbic lobe develop?
|
1. emotions and memory
2. our response to dfft emotional stimuli 3. sexual preferences 4. eating preferences 5. dvlp out emotions |
|
what does the limbic lobe primarily receive?
|
olfactory impulses
only impulse that terminates directly into the telencephalon |
|
central sulcus
|
separates frontal from parietal
|
|
2 primary functions of the frontal lobe
|
1. motor cortex
2. original thought |
|
Precentral Gyrus
|
Primary motor cotrex
Area 4 CST |
|
3 Subdivisions of Inferior frontal gyrus
|
1. pars opercularis
2. pars triangularis 3. pars orbitalis |
|
lobes that have opercular areas
|
frontal, temporal, parietal
all turn inward to insular cortex |
|
Brocas Speech Area
|
just in front of the base of the precentral gyrus
areas 44 and 45 ability to learn how to speak |
|
what happens if brocas area is cut off?
|
muscles of the larynx/pharynx will loose motor associations but will NOT be paralyzed
|
|
Prefrontal Cortex
|
ant to primary motor cortex
most developed in Man Original Thought creative/abstract thought |
|
Long Association Bundles
|
connect prefrontal cortex to all other areas of CNS
|
|
Postcentral Gyrus
|
sensory association cortex
helps to understand external environment |
|
hemineglect
|
damage to post central gyrus (sensory cortex)
|
|
Temporal Lobe
|
ant-post-and heschel's gyrus
auditory impulses come into context here (41+42) |
|
Receptive aphasia
|
loose areas 21+22 in auditory association cortex
cant understand what is being spoken |
|
Expressive Aphasia
|
loosing Brokas area
|
|
Alzheimer's
|
disease of association cortex
symptoms of profound dementia are from the association cortex |
|
Corpus collosum
|
connects the 2 hemispheres
can be separated and still perfom well |
|
cingulate gyrus
|
part of limbic lobe
necessary in laying down new memories |
|
Lamina Terminalis
|
connects the anterior commissure to the optic chiasma
|
|
what does the lamina terminalis represent?
|
the closure of the ant neuropore
|
|
Posterior Commissure
|
interconnects areas on either side of the sup collic called the PRETECTAL NUCLEI
-visual relfexes(pupil constriction) |
|
Dorsal Longitudinal Fasiculus
|
relays impulses from the hypothalmus down to the brainstem
|
|
subcallosal gyrus
paraolfactory area of broca |
receiving olfactory impulses
rec olfact sensations |
|
Fornix
precommissural fornix |
originates lateraly in temp lobe
concerned with memory formation terminates in mammillary bodies part of fornix that passes anteriorly |
|
Uncus
|
most medial projection of temporal lobe
contains the amygdala |
|
Uncal Herniation
|
massive intracranial bleed that forces unci to be forced down into tentorium cerebelli
|
|
Hippocampal Gyrus
|
most medial gyrus of temp lobe
contains the hippocampus (but they are phylo dfft) |
|
Hippocampus
|
located in the floor of the inf horn of the lateral ventricle
amygdala is in rostral tip of that |
|
Insular Cortex
|

dogs/cats have it on surface Represents Visceral anatomy from rostral to caudal VISCERAL ASSOCIATION CORTEX |
|
substantia nigra
|
sits on top of cerebral peduncles and provides all of the Dopamine to cortex
