prosencephalon (forebrain) turns into
telencephalon and diencephalon
mesencephalon (midbrain) turns into
mesencephalon (brain stem: midbrain) cerebral aqueduct

telencephalon is
cerebrum: cerebral hemispheres (cortex, white matter, basal nuclei) lateral ventricles
diencephalon is
thalamus, hypothalamus, epithalamus, retina third ventricles
metencephalon is
brain step: Pons cerebellum fourth ventricle
myelencephalon is
brain stem: medulla oblongata fourth ventricle
Gyrus

sulcus
2
fissure
3
Thalamus
sensory relay
hypothalamus
endocrine system autonomic system rage/ aggression hunger/ thirst basal instincts
epithalamus
pineal body/ gland (melatonin)
midbrain
corpora quadrigemina -superior colliculi (visual- move head and neck to visual stimuli) -inferior colliculi (auditory- move head and neck to auditory stimuli)
Pons
relay sensory and motor tracts
medulla oblongata
cardiovascular and respiratory centers
Cerebellum
posterior aspect "little brain" coordination fine motor skills
Cerebellum- vermis
middle part
cerebellum- arbor vitae
"tree of life" branches inside cerebellum
frontal lobe
voluntary motor two lobes because two hemispheres covered by frontal bone
parietal lobes
somatosensory -pain, pressure, tickle
temporal lobes
auditory
occipital lobes
vision
longitudinal fissure
front to back (anterior to posterior)
central sulcus
left to right on top -separates frontal from parietal
precentral gyrus
frontal lobe -gyrus anterior (infront) to central sulcus
postcentral gyrus
parietal lobe -gyrus posterior (behind) central sulcus
corpus collosum
arch abone the thalamus and hypothalamus
Auricle
external ear lobe
external acoustic meatus
external ear auditory canal
tympanic membrane
external ear ear drum (high-low frequencies)
malleus
middle ear hammer
incus
middle ear anvil
stapes
middle ear Sturrup
pharyngotympanic tube
eustachian tube
round window
near stapes
oval window
near malleus
cochlea
inner ear (bony labyrinth) snail shell shaped extends from vestibule basilar membrane -floor of cochlea duct -support spiral organ cochlear branch of nerve VIII runs from spiral organ to brain
three chambers of cochlea
scala vestibule cochlear duct scala tympani
scala vestibule
abuts oval window contains perilymph
scala media (Cochlear duct)
contains endolymph
scala tympani
terminates at round window contains perilymph
inner ear
cochlear duct utricle saccule semicircular ducts CN VIII vestibulocochlear
equilibrium
reponse to various movements of head rely on unput from inner ear, eyes, and stretch receptors
vestibular apparatus
equilibrium receptors in semicircular canals and vestibule
vestibular receptors
static equilibrium (not moving)
semicircular canal receptors
dynamic equilibrium (moving)
eyelid
thin skin covered fold protect anterior eye
eyebrow
over lie supraorbital margins shade eye from sunlight
lacrimal gland
lacrimal gland, canal, sac drains into nose (causes you to blow your nose when crying)
nasolacrimal duct
tears
conju
transparent mucous membrane produces a lubricating mucous secretion covers exposed surface of eye -minus cornea conjunctivitis (pink eye)
sclera
opaque posterior region (white part) protects and shapes eyeball anchors extrinsic eye muscle posteriorly where optic nerve exits, sclera is continuous with dura mater of brain
cornea
transparent part of fibrous layer anterior 1/6th clear window lets light enter bends light numerous pain receptors -blinking and tearing reflexes
choroid
posterior portions supplies blood to all layers of eyeball brown pigment absorbs light to prevent scattering of light
ciliary process
capillaries secrete fluid for anterior segment of eyeball
ciliary muscles
smooth muscle bundles that control shape of lense i
iris
colored part of eye lies between cornea and lens continuous with ciliary body
pupil
central opening that regulates amount of light entering eye
pigmented layer of retina
single-cell-thick lining next to choroid covers ciliary body and iris functions: absorbs light and prevents its scattering
neural layer of retina
transparent runs anteriorly to margin of ciliary body
rods
dim light, peripheral vision receptors more numerous and more sensitive to light than cores no color vision or sharp images numbers greatest at periphery
cones
vision receptors for bright light high-resolution color visions
lens
biconvex transparent flexible avascular changes shape to precisely focus light on retina
anterior segment
divided by iris
anterior chamber
between cornea and iris
posterior chamber
between iris and lens
aqueous humor
plasma like fluid continuously formed by capillaries of ciliary processes
posterior segment
contains vitreous humor -transmits light -supports posterior surface of lens -holds retina firmly against wall
