Yes they are :)
They are the same. The word cerbral is misspelled and should be cerebral. This the covering of the brain. Cortex means "bark", like the bark on a tree.
No the Cortex is the outer layer of a internal organ, a cerebal cotex is, specificly, the outer layer of the brain which contains grey matter and neurons....but after saying that, a Cortex is a outer casing in general
The amount of cerebral cortex is larger. a cat has small amounts. Humans have much more and is a little more than a ape. Animals have the same brain structure as humans, it is just managed differently. (the cerebral cortex covers the entirety of the brain)
The visual stimuli are received by occipital lobe. The same is analysed by cerebral cortex.
The Cerebrum is the largest part of the brain consisting of the four lobes of the brain. These are the parietal lobe, occipital lobe, frontal lobe, and the temporal lobe. Each lobe carries many different responsibilities. A few of these are as follows: Frontal lobe- reasoning, planning, emotions, speech, and movements. Temporal Lobe- memory, speach, auditory stimuli, and perception and recognition. The parietal lobe-orientation, recognition, stimuli. The Occipital Lobe-visual processing. The Cerebral Cortex is the material filling the grooves seen in brain images. It is responsible for many different senses such as memory, attention, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness. Alot of the movements associated with the cerebral cortex are voluntary, but not all are.
A dolphins brain and therefore its cerebral cortex is about the same size as a humans, however some dolphin species have a more deeply folded cerebral cortex than in humans but the cortex itself is not as thick. The level of folding found in the dolphins brain is so similar to that of humans as to suggest that they have a level of intelligence comparable to our own. So to answer the question what is the size of a dolphins cerebral cortex, the data seams to suggest it is about the same as our own.
no
These are referred to as associational connections when communication is between different parts of cortex in the same hemisphere. There also exists numerous fiber tracts between sub-cortical and cortical structures such as the optic radiation within the same hemisphere.
association fibres = connect the different cortical areas in the same hemispherecommisural fibres = connect one part of the CNS on one side with the same part on the opposite sideprojection fibres = connect the cerebral cortex with lower centres
Executive function of the prefrontal cortex relates to abilities to differentiate among conflicting thoughts, determine good and bad, better and best, same and different, future consequences of current activities, working toward a defined goal, prediction of outcomes, expectation based on actions, and the ability to suppress urges that, if not suppressed, could lead to socially unacceptable outcomes.
The parietal lobe is one of the four major lobes, regions of the cerebral cortex. This particular lobe works to process sensory information for other parts of the brain, and at its core works via the same electrical pulses the rest of the brain uses to function.
The huge relative size of our cerebral cortex, the frontal lobes especially, give the human brain some unique fucntions. No other species has the same level of self-awareness, self-control, reasoning, imagination, creativity and abstract thought.
