What else can I help you with?
5 The mammalian brain contains folds in the nervous tissue These folds increase the of the brain?
Surface area.
What is the function of folds in a mammalian brain?
They are called sulci (plural of sulcus).
What does the structure of the mammalian brain indicate about intelligence?
Mammalian intelligence depends mostly on the folds present in the cortex. The more folded the cortex the smarter. If you compare a rat brain to a human brain, the rats brain will be alot smoother and flatter.
The outer layer of the mammalian brain has many folds that?
increase the surface area of the brain, allowing for more complex cognitive functions to occur within a limited space. This outer layer, known as the cerebral cortex, is responsible for higher brain functions such as decision making, problem solving, and language processing.
Is the limbic system the same as the mammalian brain?
No, the limbic system is a set of brain structures involved in emotions, memory, and motivation, while the mammalian brain refers to the entire brain of mammals. The limbic system is a part of the mammalian brain.
What are the folds on the cerebral hemispheres?
Gyri is the name of the folds in the gray matter of the brain that form the cerebral cortex. These folds increase the surface area of the cortex, facilitating diffusion of nutrients, respiratory gases, and wastes between the nervous tissue and the cerebrospinal fluid and blood stream.
What are the fine folds of the brain?
The answer is quite simple. The fine folds of the brain are called "folia".
What increases the surface area of this part of the brain?
The folds in the brain increase the surface area. It nearly triples the surface area. As we grow, more of these bends form.
Why is the inside of the mitochondria have folds?
Folds increase surface area.So it increase the rate of respiration.
What are the folds in the brain that stores memories?
Gyri are the folds in the brain that store memories. These are located on the cerebral cortex, along with the sulci.
What are the outward folds of the brain?
gyri
Why is the cortex wrinkled?
The folds of the brain cortex increase the surface area. Because the processing of the brain is done in the cortex, having an increased surface area allows for more processing power.
