  1. A deep sulcus also known as the Sylvan fissure
    What is the Lateral Sulcus
  2. Where is the lateral sulcus located?
    What separates the temporal lobe from the frontal lobe rostrally and the temporal lobe from the parietal lobe caudally.
  3. Where is the central sulcus located?
    What sulcus separates the two gyri that course vertically toward the lateral sulcus (in parallel) on the lateral aspect of the hemisphere.
  4. What fissure separates the two hemispheres?
    Where is the logitudinal fissure located?
  5. When you examine the medial aspect of the hemisphere you see a prominent sulcus that courses vertically, what is this called?
    Where is the parieto-occipital sulcus located?
  6. Which sulcus demarcates the parietal from occipital lobes?
    The parietal-occipital sulcus demarcates which lobes?
  7. Where is the frontal lobe located?
    Which lobe is rostral to the central sulcus, and has an inferior boundary on the lateral aspect of the hemisphere?
  8. Where is the occipital lobe located?
    Which lobe is located in the lower back of the two hemispheres?
