the largest and most developed part of the brain, responsible for conscious thought, perception, movement, and memory
the vital bridge between the brain and the spinal cord, controlling essential functions and relaying information throughout the body
a bundle of nerve fibers that connects the left and right hemispheres of the brain, facilitating communication
an almond-shaped structure in the brain that plays a key role in processing emotions
(anatomy) the outer layer of the anterior part of the brain, called cerebrum, containing gray matter
a region of the cerebral cortex responsible for planning, controlling, and executing voluntary movements
a curved fold in the cerebral cortex that is involved in emotion, memory, and attention
the anterior part of the brain responsible for higher cognitive functions and complex behaviors
a region of the brain responsible for cognitive functions such as decision-making or problem-solving

a region of the brain responsible for auditory processing, memory, language comprehension, and visual perception
the region of the brain within the temporal lobe that is involved in auditory processing, memory, language comprehension, and visual recognition
a curved fold of tissue located within the temporal lobe of the brain, involved in various functions such as auditory processing, language, memory, and emotion
a region of the brain located in the frontal lobe that is responsible for controlling voluntary movement of muscles throughout the body
a shallow groove or indentation on the surface of the brain, separating different regions or lobes
a groove on the lateral surface of the cerebrum that separates the frontal and parietal lobes from the temporal lobe

the front part of the brain involved in higher cognition and executive functions
a brain structure involved in emotional and cognitive processing, located above the corpus callosum
a protective fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, providing cushioning and facilitating nutrient exchange
a small opening that connects the lateral ventricles of the brain, allowing the flow of cerebrospinal fluid between them
a fluid-filled cavity in the brain that plays a role in cerebrospinal fluid circulation and communication between brain regions
a fluid-filled cavity located in the brainstem, involved in the production and circulation of cerebrospinal fluid
a fluid-filled area between the arachnoid membrane and the pia mater in the central nervous system
a fluid-filled space within the body, particularly within the brain or spinal cord, that acts as a reservoir for cerebrospinal fluid
a narrow fluid-filled channel that runs through the center of the spinal cord and carries cerebrospinal fluid
an opening at the posterior aspect of the skull through which the spinal cord passes
a thin membrane that covers the brain and spinal cord, playing a role in protecting and supporting the central nervous system
the innermost layer of the meninges, which is a protective membrane surrounding the brain and spinal cord
the middle and largest of the three cranial fossae, located at the base of the skull and housing the temporal lobes of the brain
a cavity located at the base of the skull that holds the cerebellum, pons, and medulla oblongata
the shallowest and most anterior of the three cranial fossae, located at the base of the skull and housing the frontal lobes of the brain
