lateral ventricle
either of two horseshoe-shaped ventricles one in each cerebral hemisphere; they communicate with the third ventricle via the foramen of Monro
parieto-occipital sulcus
Pineal gland
Third ventricle
olfactory
purely sensory; carries impulses or the sense of smell
optic
purely sensory; carries impulses for vision
oculomotor
supplies motor fibers to direct the eyeball; to the eyelid; and to the internal muscles controlling lens shape and pupil size
trochlear
supplies motor fibers for one external eye muscle (superior oblique)
trigeminal
conducts sensory impulses from the skin of the face and mucosa of the nose and mouth; contains motor fibers that activate chewing
abducens
supplies motor fibers to the lateral rectus muscle, which roles the eye laterally
facial
activates the muscles of facial expression, carries sensory impulses from the taste buds of anterior tongue
vestibulocochlear
transmits impulses fro the sense of balance as a well as the cochlear branch that transmits impulses for the sense of hearing
glossopharygeal
carries sensory impulses from pharynx (swallowing) and taste on one-third side of tongue (IX)
vagus
carries sensory impulses from and motor impulses to the pharynx, larynx, and the abdominal and thoracic viscera
Spinal accessory
mostly motor fibers that activate the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles
hypoglossal
motor fibers control tongue movements; sensory fibers carry impulses from the tongue
Midbrain: oculomotor nerve (CN III)
superior colliculus
an essential visual center between the retina and the striate cortex
inferior colliculus
an essential auditory center in the midbrain
cerebral aqueduct
a canal connecting the third and fourth ventricles
transverse cerebral fissure
cerebellar hemisphere
either of two lateral lobes of the cerebellum
Arbor vitae
Blue
vermis
the narrow central part of the cerebellum between the two hemispheres (yellow)
folia (gray matter)
Leaf like
purkinje cell
a large densely branching neuron that is the characteristic cell of the cerebellar cortex
4th ventricle
Blue
Central canal
Red
Ventricles
Gray matter CNS
short non myelinated neurons - synapses occur
White matter
No neuron cell bodies - axons ascend from spinal cord to brain to communicate
Neuron Cell Body
Dendrites
Axons
pyramidal cells
