TELENCEPHALON DIENCEPHALON
CEREBRAL CORTEX
LIMBIC SYSTEM
BASAL GANGLIA
THALAMUS
HYPOTHALAMUS
PRIMARY MOTOR CORTEX
–region of the posterior frontal
lobe involved in movement.
PRIMARY
SOMATOSENSORY
CORTEX-located caudal to the
central sulcus.Receives
information from the body
senses
PRIMARY AUDITORY
CORTEX-Located on the upper
surface of the lateral fissure
which receives auditory
information.
PRIMARY VISUAL
CORTEX-Located at the back
of the brain.Receives visual
information
The outer layer of the cerebral
hemispheres
HIPPOCAMPUS-Forebrain
structure of the temporal lobe
AMYGDALA-Interior of the
rostral temporal lobe
FORNIX-is a bundle of axons
that connects the
hippocampus with other
regions of the brain
Basal ganglia is located
beneath the anterior portion
of the lateral ventricles
Caudate nucleus is a tail like
nucleus that extends in each
hemisphere from the
amygdala
Putamen is located in each
hemisphere just lateral to the
globus pallidus
Globus Pallidus is located
between the thalamus &
putamen
IT’S THE SECOND MAJOR
DIVISION OF THE
FOREBRAIN
Thalamus-situated near the
middle of the cerebral
hemisphere,makes up the
dorsal part of diencephalon
Hypothalamus-lies at the base of
the brain under the thalamus

CORPUS CALLOSUM-
egion connecting the
two cerebral
hemispheres
CINGULATE GYRUS-
Just above the corpus
callosum
STRUCTURE FRONTAL LOBE -includes
everything in front of central
sulcus
PARIETAL LOBE-located on
the side of the cerebral
hemisphere just behind the
central sulcus
TEMPORAL LOBE-juts
forward from the base of the
brain
OCCIPITAL LOBE-lies at the
very back of the brain.caudal to
the parietal and temporal lobes
