cranial nerves numbered

frontal lobes

parietal lobe

temporal lobe

occipital lobe

longitudinal fissure
separates left and right cerebral hemispheres
extends along the midsagittal plane
falx cerebri is found here

corpus callosum
connects L/R cerebral hemispheres and is their main mode of communication
last resort tx for seizures is to sever corp[us callosum

cerebellum and arbor vitae
Little brain
Arbor vitae: tree of life
Cerebellum is responsible for muscle memory, equilibrium, posture, proprioception

Pons
Brainstem includes: midbrain, pons, medulla oblongata

Medulla Oblongata
Continuous with spinal cord, motor tracts cross to the opposite side of the brain
police snipers aim for tip of the nose or base of ear lobe
functions include sensory relay for cranial nerves, relay for thalamus, cardiac center, vasomotor center, respiratory center

Ventricles
Little cavity
Ventricles are continuous with each other and with the central canal of the spinal cord
4 ventricles: lateral (x2), 3rd, 4th
Lateral: largest
3rd: located within diencephalon (w/ thalamus, hypothalamus, epithalamus
4th: between the pons and the cerebellum. Narrows at the caudal end before merging with the central canal in the spinal cord

choroid Plexi
in all ventricles
formed by ependymal cells that line the ventricles and nearby blood capillaries
Meninges
connective tissue that surround and separate portions of the brain
dura mater, arachonoid mater, pia mater
dura mater
tough mother
most superficial layer
extends as flat partitions in the cranial cavity at several locations providing additional support
Dura Mater - falx xerebri
in midsagittal plane
anterior attach- crista galli
posterior attach- superior portion of tentorium cerebelli
Dura Mater - tentorium cerebelli
tent, little brain
separates occipital lobe and temporal lobe from cerebellum
Arachnoid mater
spider mother
delicate web of collage and elastic fiber
Pia Mater
delicate mother
deepest layer of cranial meninges
delicate connective tissue adheres to brain tightly, difficult to distinguish from brain
Optic nervies, optic chiasm, optic tract
optic= to see, chiasm= x-shaped, optic nerves- cn II
Optic nerves enter the optic foramen and then converge to form the optic chiams
Optic Chiasm is superior to sella turcica and pituitary gland
Olfactory bulb

Olfactory Tract

Left Atrium

Right Atrium

R/L Auricles

Left Ventricle (closed/open)

Right Ventricle (closed/open)

Chordae Tendineae

Papillary Muslces

Trabeculae Carneae

Pulmonary Arteries

Pulmonary Veins

Pulmonary Trunk and Pulmonary Artery

Pulmonary Arteries

Aorta (asceneding/arch)

aortic arch: 3 arteries that arise from the aortic arch
brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid artery, left subclavian

Brachiocephalic trunk: 2 arteries that branch off the trunk
Brachiocephalic trunk, right common carotid artery, right subclavian artery

internal/external carotid artery

descending thoracic aorta

Descending abdominal aorta

L/R common iliac artery

internal/external iliac arteries

femoral artery

L/R pulmonary veins

Superior vena cava

internal jugular vein

L/R Brachiocephalic vein

inferior vena cava

R/L common iliac veins

internal/external iliac veins

Femoral Vein

Great Saphenous vein

Spleen
largest organ in the lymphatic system. it is an important organ for keeping bodily fluids balanced, but it is possible to live without it. the spleen is located under the ribcage and above the stomach in the left upper quad of the abdomen. A spleen is soft and generally looks purple
Nares

vestibule

hair in nose
vibrissae
nasal conchae

epiglottis

thyroid cartilage

cricoid cartilage

trachea

bronchi
R/L

Right Lung

Left Lung

Visceral Pleura

Parietal Pleura

esophagus
muscular tube connecting pharynx w/ stomach
runs behind windpipe and heart, in front of spine

cardia of stomach

fundus of the stomach

body of stomach

pylorus of the stomach

rugae of the stomach (folds)

pyloric sphincter

greater omentum

lesser omentum

mesentery

liver

falciform ligament

gallbladder

bile duct

pancreas

duodenum (small intestine)

jejunum

Ileum (small intestine)

cecum

vermiform appendix

ascending colon

hepatic flexure (right colon flexure)

Transverse colon

splenic flexure

descending colon

Sigmoid colon

Taeniae Coli

Haustra
small segmented pouches of the bowl separated by the haustral folds. formed by circumferential contraction of the inner muscular layer of the colon. the outer longitudinal muscular layer is organized into 3 bands (taeniae coli) which run from the cecum to the rectum.
rectum

Kidneys

renal cortex
