They are called sulci (plural of sulcus).
the folds in the mammalian brain
surface area
Because all the folds and creases increases the surface area of the brain, allowing more brain cells to be packed inside the limited space of the skull.
the folds of the mitochondria are important to store proteins
folds up
Brain fissures are convolutions in the structure of the brain that form valleys between folds. The valleys are called fissures or sulci (plural of sulcus), and lie between the raised folds called gyri (singular gyrus).Many brain features are identified with fissures, including Broca's fissure, the Fissure of Sylvius, the central (Rolando's) fissure, and the hippocampal fissure.
The occipital lobe is the visual processing center of the mammalian brain. It contains most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex. Sorry if this doesn't help!
Surface area.
helps increase the brain's surface area
Increase the active surface area.
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 answer is quite simple. The fine folds of the brain are called "folia".
Gyri are the folds in the brain that store memories. These are located on the cerebral cortex, along with the sulci.
gyri
The folds on the surface of the brain are called gyri.
Gyri are the folds in the brain that store memories. These are located on the cerebral cortex, along with the sulci.
The meandering ridges and valleys of brain coral give it the appearance of a mammalian brain.
The main function of the synovial folds in the human body is to lubricate joints. This is what allows people to move without feeling pain.
By studying Albert Einstein's brain, scientists found that certain areas related to mathematical and spatial reasoning were larger than average. However, it is important to note that the studies done are limited and results should be interpreted with caution. They did not conclusively prove a link between brain anatomy and Einstein's intelligence.
