They are called sulci and they allow for a greater surface area of the cortex of the brain which is where the majority of the neurons reside.
Postcentral gyrus, or the parietal lobe [Edit: The postcentral gyrus is posterior to the central sulcus, not anterior. The primary motor cortex is located directly anterior to the central sulcus.]

Data indicate a marked variability and suggest that motor and sensory cortices overlap and are not divided in a simple manner by the central sulcus. The central sulcus is the word that you are looking for.

At the midpoint it is the sagitall suture.

Central sulcus
You have motor area in front of the central sulcus. You have sensory area behind the central sulcus. So in this type of bleeding the sensory area is not affected.

The Sylvian fissure and central sulcus.
