Name the depression between the two ventricles seen on the anterior surface of the heart?
The depression between the two ventricles on the anterior surface of the heart is called the interventricular sulcus or the anterior interventricular groove. It houses the anterior interventricular artery, also known as the left anterior descending artery.
What is the difference between gyri and sulci?
Parts of the Brain: Cerebrum-largest part of brain, 7/8 total mass of the brain. * 2 cerebral hemispheres: # ridges- gyri # grooves- sulci *Gyrus(gyri)-is a ridge on the cerebral cortex. Folds on the brain material. Many ridgescalled convolutions, or gyri, or gyrus, separated by grooves, mark the cerebrum's surface. *Sulcus(sulci)-shallow grooves on the brain. Generally, a shallow to somewhat deep groove is called a sulcus, or sulci, and a very deep groove is called a fissure.
What is the funnel like depression on the pellicle called?
The funnel-like depression on the pellicle of some cells is called a cytostome. It is an opening that allows the cell to take in nutrients or expel waste.
What is the function of the cerebral sulci?
The central sulcus is a deep groove (or furrow) in the brain that separates the frontal and parietal lobes of the cerebrum. The frontal lobe is known as the motor cotrex and the parietal lobe is known as the sensory cortex. the central sulcus has a 'map' of the human body on each side that corresponds to the other side. So when the sensory part is stimulated, its associated motor part is right across the sulcus. The model of the human body in relation to how many nerves are associated with each body part is called a homonculus and you can see one in one of the links below:
What is the difference between a gyrus and sulcus?
a sulcus is a depression or a groove found on the surface of an organ or tissue,as on the surface of the brain separating adjacent convultion. While a gyrus is one of the prominent rounded elevations between the sulci or grooves on the surface of the hemispheres of the brain.
What bis a bump in the cerebral cortex called?
a gyrus is a fold of neural tissue, a sulcus is a groove
A shallow groove on the surface of the cortex is called a?
sulcus
Where in a human body can you find a Sulcus and a Gyrus?
In the brain. A sulcus refers to a groove or furrow in the cerebral cortex, while a gyrus is a ridge or bump on the brain's surface. They are both part of the cerebral cortex's folded structure, which allows for more surface area within the limited space of the skull.
What is the medical term meaning a shallow groove on the surface of the cortex?
Sulcus
Name the depression between the two ventricles seen on the anterior surface of the heart?
The depression between the two ventricles on the anterior surface of the heart is called the interventricular sulcus or the anterior interventricular groove. It houses the anterior interventricular artery, also known as the left anterior descending artery.
What is a groove in the cortex called?
It's called sulci, the singular form is sulcus
What is the name of the depression between the two ventricles on the anterior surface of the heart?
the interventricular septum, it separates the two ventricles
What is the difference between mare and a rille?
In the geography of the moon, a mare is a large depression (think sea) and a rille is a groove in the surface (think canal or channel)
What is a groove in the brain called?
A groove in the brain is called a sulcus. Sulci are the small grooves or furrows between the folds of the brain, known as gyri, and help to increase the surface area of the brain for more neurons to reside.
Does the coronary sulcus contain fat?
No the coronary sulcus does not contain fat. The coronary sulcus is a groove or depression on the surface of the heart located between the atria and ventricles and is lined with connective tissue.
The deep groove separating the two cerebral hemispheres?
The deep groove separating the two cerebral hemispheres is called the longitudinal fissure. It is also known as the interhemispheric fissure and contains a thick band of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum, which facilitates communication between the two hemispheres of the brain.
What is a linear channel of sulcus on the surface of a tooth?
groove
