It's seperate from the cerebral hemispheres, sitting just under them. It has a similar simplified structure in that it is highly folded with a grey matter cortex and a white matter core. It has also been linked in many cognitive functions, but it's most researched is its role in movement.

What is called the small brain as it looks like a miniature cerebral cortex?
cerebellum
What part separates cerebellum hemispheres?
tentorium cerebelli separates your cerebellum from your cerebrum.
What part of the brain controls balance movement and coordination?
That part of the brain is called the cerebellum. In the smallest area of the cerebellum, called the flocculonodular lobe, there is something called the vestibulocerebellum. Its main function is balance and coordination; therefore, if it is damaged, it could cause disturbances to your balance and walking abilities.
What brain control balance?
cerebellum
What are the three of the human brain?
cerebrum, cerebellum, and the brain stem
What is brain called scientifically?
Cerebellum.
What is the cerebellum also called?
The little brain
What are the three parts of the brain called?
The cerebrum, brain stem and the cerebellum.
What is part of the brain responsible for coordinating muscle movements and maintaining balance called?
The part of the human brain which controls voluntary muscle movement (controlled muscle movement) is called the Cerebellum. This part of the brain also controls your balance.cerebellum
What is the part of the brain that control actions of muscles and maintains balance?
Cerebellum. Also called the little brain in the posterior of the head.
Referred to as the brain within the brain.?
The cerebellum is also sometimes called the "Little Brain" or the brain within the brain.
What is referred to little brain in the brain?
cerebellum
Is a cerebellum a cell?
no, the cerebellum is the brain.
What is your old brain?
The cerebellum is sometimes called the "ancient brain" or "primitive brain". The reason is that structures homologous to the cerebellum are found in animals that are not at all closely related to the primates. From this we conclude that the cerebellum evolved very early, and was inherited from very early ancestors.
What brain is called the small brain because it looks like a miniature cerebral cortex?
The cerebellum
What is the region of brain concerned with coordination and skeletal muscle called?
Cerebellum
What effect does damage to the cerebellum have on the brain?
The cerebellum is part of the brain, but if you damage the cerebellum, the person will have difficulty with coordinated movement.
