Metencephalon & Myelencephalon
-
Telencephalon
Cerebral Cortex, Basal Ganglia, Corpus Callosum, & Limbic System
-
Basal Ganglia
Motor movement; Made up of: The Striatum - [Amygdala, Caudate], Putamen, & Globus Pallidus
-
Corpus Callosum
Connects hemispheres of the cortex
-
Limbic System
Hippocampus (memory) & Amygdala (emotional expression)
-
Diencephalon
Thalamus, LGN, MGN, Ventrolateral Nucleus, & Hypothalamus
-
Thalamus
"Relay Station" - receives input from all senses except smell, performs analyses, and transmits info to brain
-
-
-
Ventrolateral Nucleus
Motor
-
Hypothalamus
Certain metabolic processes
-
Mesencephalon
Tectum & Tegmentum
-
Tectum
Superior & Inferior Colliculi
-
Tegmentum
Substantia Nigra, Periaqueductal gray (analgesia - gray matter around the cerebral aqueduct), Reticular formation, Red Nucleus
-
Meyencephalon
Medulla Oblongata
-
Medulla Oblongata
The most caudal portion of the brain, immediately rostral to the spine; Includes nuclei that control vital functions such as the cardiovascular system, respiration, & skeletal muscle tone
-
