The human brain is larger.
The positioning of the hind brain is different, due to the erect position of humans.
Convolutions are increased in humans (increases surface area).
The sheep's brain has a smaller cerebellum (lesser motor control/less complex learned motor behaviors).
There is a larger pineal gland in sheep (related to circadian rhythms/seasonal reproduction).

∙ 10y agoMany people are saying that they are pretty much the same, only highlighting the difference in size. However, the question is not about the size of the cerebellum. Proportionally, the sheep's olfactory bulbs are larger than the human's are. This is because the sheep rely more on their sense of smell than the humans do.

How does the sheep's cerebral cortex compare to the human cerebral cortex?
The depth of the fissure creating the cerebral hemisphere in a human brain is larger than that of a sheep. This is due to the fact that the human brain is larger and rounder compared to the elongated brain of the sheep.

Why do you study sheep brains in a human anatomy class?
Although not identical, the sheep brain holds many biological similarities to the human brain, much more so than a bird's or fish's, as both are mammals. Since it is considered much more humane to not use an actual human brain for study, brains from preserved sheep are examined by students to draw the composition of the brain and obtain physical experience.
Are sheeps brains the size of peas?
No not quite a sheep brain is only a bit smaller than a human brain maybe 1 1/2 fists roughly.

When comparing human and sheep brain you observe some profound differences between them Record observations?
When you compare human and sheep brain you observe some profound differences between them. This is because they are differently evolved.
What are the differences between the structures of the sheep cerebellum and the human cerebellum?
The human cerebellum and the sheep cerebellum are very similar. The brain system is conserved across all mammal and animal species.
Difference between sheep's cerebellum and human cerebellum?
There are quite a few differences between sheep cerebellum and human cerebellum. The most noticeable difference is the size of each.
What is the differenc in human vs sheep brain dealing with the ponsmedulla?
The human pons is larger (pons serves as a bridge of communication between cerebellum and cerebrum) The sheep medulla is larger (Medulla controls vital functions (breathing and heart beat))

How do the gyri and sulci of the sheep brain compare to that of the human brain?
The gyri is a large octopus tentacle that sneezes when the lollipops are attached to the opposite side of the triangular surface of a pancake and the sulci is a turkey times the number of y chromosomes in a head of lettuce.
