What is dyspraxia?
incoordination, associated with developmental coordination disorder. Will have trouble maintaining balance in environments with changing surfaces and obstacles such as in a crowded hallway.
The Forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain are also known as the:
Prosencephalon, mesencephalon, and rhombencephalon
The prosencephalon is divided into which 2 parts, which are further divided into which parts?
Telencephalon: Cerebrum, hippocampus, basal ganglia, amygdala.
Diencephalon: Thalamus, hypo, sub, epi
The mesencephalon is further divided into which 2 parts, which are further divided into:
Tectum: Superior and inferior colliculi
Tegmentum: Cerebral aqueduct, periaqueductal gray, retinacular formation, substantia nigra, red nucleus.
The Rhombencephalon is divided into what 2 parts, which are further divided into what parts?
Metencephalon: Cerebellum, pons
Myelencephalon: Medulla oblongata

Occipital lobe into superior and inferior halves
What does the sylvian fissure separate?
Anterior portion separates the temporal and frontal lobes, posterior separates the the temporal and parietal lobes
what does the sulcus of Rolondo separate?
Also called the central sulcus, separates the frontal and parietal lobes laterally
What gray matter masses compose the basal ganglia?
Caudate, putamen, globus pallidus, substantia nigra, subthalamic nuclei.
