Neurobiology Lecture 1 Flashcards
(33 cards)
All parts of the CNS arise from a specialized region of the ectoderm called the
neural plate
Where is the neural plate located
along the dorsal midline
What part of the neural tube differentiates the fastest
more quickly in the center of the neural plate
The neural tube closes first at the
top and then the bottom
The open fluid-filled space inside the neural tube becomes
ventricular system
What does the prosencephalon become
cerebral cortex, basal ganglia, and thalamus
What does the mesencephalon become
brainstem (midbrain)
What does the rhombencephalon become
pons, medulla, cerebellum
The telencephalon becomes the
cerebral cortex and basal ganglia
The open fluid filled space within the telencephalon becomes the
lateral ventricles
The diencephalon becomes the
thalamus and hypothalamus
The open fluid filled space in the diencephalon becomes the
third ventricle
The telencephalon houses the olfactory…
bulbs
The diencephalon houses the olfactory…
cups
The open fluid fillled space within the midbrain becoems the
cerebral aqueduct
The rhombencephalon become the hindbrain which contains which two brainstem portions
pons
medulla
The metecephalon becomes the
pons and cerebellum
The myelencephalon becomes the
medulla
Can the fourth ventricle be seen through the rhombencephalon
yes
What is a thick band of white matter connecting hemsipheres
Corpus collosum
T/F higher order animals tend to have more complex cortex meaning more layers of neurons
T
How many layers of neocortex
6
What is Broadman’s area divided up by
cytoarchitecture
Language is
lateralized
