The neural tube
The neural tube develops into the vertebrate spinal cord. It forms early in embryonic development from a flat sheet of neural ectoderm that rolls into a tube, eventually differentiating into the brain and spinal cord.
Neural Tube
The brain is superior to the spinal cord.
The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord, so that the brain can send messages through the cord to the rest of the body. The functioning of the body is severely compromised if the spinal cord connections are severed.
There is no joint between brain and spinal cord. The spinal cord is a mass of neurones that is situated in the backbone which feeds in to the brain via neurones.
Membranes called meninges cover and protect the brain and spinal cord. The skull and spinal column also protect the brain and spinal cord, respectively. The spinal cord is made up by individual vertebrae.
most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are
The bundle of nerves that connects the brain to the rest of the body is the spinal cord.
The parts of the CNS are the brain and the spinal cord.
Brain stem
The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord.
Yes the spinal cord can work without the brain.
