Study Notes
The Spinal Cord and Meninges
- The spinal cord is located within the vertebral canal of the spinal column and is surrounded by three meninges (sachaea).
- Additional protection is provided by the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which surrounds the spinal cord in the subarachnoid space.
The Brain Divisions
- The brain is divided into three main sections: hindbrain, midbrain, and forebrain.
- The sections are arranged in an ascending order from the spinal cord.
Hindbrain
- The hindbrain consists of the medulla oblongata and the pons.
- The cerebellum is responsible for coordinating movement and balance.
- The cerebellum is composed of two hemispheres connected by a middle part.
Midbrain
- The midbrain is the narrow part of the brain that connects the forebrain to the hindbrain.
- It consists of a dorsal thalamus and a ventral hypothalamus.
Forebrain
- The forebrain is partially hidden from the surface of the brain.
- It is divided into four lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital, named after the bones of the cranium they lie under.
