Where is the centrum semiovale regions of the brain?
The white matter at the front area of the brain
What does the white matter in the brain do?
No, the white matter in brain tissue is the area of brain tissue that contains the nerve fibre tracts with their covering of myelin which appears white.
How does the arrangement of white matter and gray matter differ in the spinal cord and the brain?
Gray matter in the cerebrum is located in the cerebral cortex and in the deeper basal nuclei, and the white matter lies deep to the neural cortex and around the basal nuclei (Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology, Martini & Nath, 2009, p. 480).The central area of the spinal cord is gray matter, and the outer surface of much of the brain consist of gray matter called cortex. (Anatomy and Physiology, Seeley Stephens Tate, 2008, p. 382)
What is the Brain area called the brain clock?
Pineal Gland
Explain the significance of the different in color and its relationship to the convolutions?
It is darker on the outside due to the presence of fissures. The darker the color, the deeper the fissure. The deeper the fissure, the more surface area there is, and the more convoulted the brain is.
Function of white matter in the brain?
White matter in the brain consists of nerve fibers (axons) that connect different parts of the brain to each other and to the spinal cord. It acts as a communication network, allowing neurons in different brain regions to send signals and work together to carry out various functions such as motor coordination, sensory processing, and cognitive tasks.
What area of the brain enables you to talk?
That area is called as Broca's area. It is located in one of the frontal lobe.
What is ventral subarachnoid?
It is the area between the pia matter and the arachnoid membrane of the brain. The pia matter is part of the membrane that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. The arachnoid membrane is the inner layer of three layers that surround the brain and spinal cord.
What is the area that controls the comprehension of language in the brain?
The area that controls the comprehension of language in the brain is called Wernicke's area, located in the left hemisphere of the brain in most individuals. Damage to this area can result in receptive aphasia, where language comprehension is impaired.
What area of the brain is believed to be responsible for the symptoms of Korsakoff's syndrome?
area of the brain believed to be responsible for the symptoms of Korsakoff's syndrome is called the diencephalon, specifically the structures called the mamillary bodies and the thalamus
What is a groove in the brain called?
A groove in the brain is called a sulcus. Sulci are the small grooves or furrows between the folds of the brain, known as gyri, and help to increase the surface area of the brain for more neurons to reside.
What is the Outer folded area of the brain?
It's called the Dura Mater.
