Function of insula?
Insula is the cerebal lobe deep within the lateral sulcus.
What are shallow grooves that exist in the brain?
You have sulci ( singular is sulcus) and gyri ( singular is gyrus) in the surface of the brain. By this mechanism you have the surface area of the brain, vastly increased.
What is the difference between gyri and sulci?
Parts of the Brain: Cerebrum-largest part of brain, 7/8 total mass of the brain. * 2 cerebral hemispheres: # ridges- gyri # grooves- sulci *Gyrus(gyri)-is a ridge on the cerebral cortex. Folds on the brain material. Many ridgescalled convolutions, or gyri, or gyrus, separated by grooves, mark the cerebrum's surface. *Sulcus(sulci)-shallow grooves on the brain. Generally, a shallow to somewhat deep groove is called a sulcus, or sulci, and a very deep groove is called a fissure.
What is the function of folds in a mammalian brain?
They are called sulci (plural of sulcus).
What is the depression or groove in the surface of the cerebral cortex?
If you're referring to the cortex of bone, that would be trabeculae.
What is a deep sulcus?
it is the surronding of th brain
What are the deep grooves in the brain called?
a groove is called a sulcus, but a deep groove is called a fissure.
What is a groove in the brain called?
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.

What are the furrows of the brain called?
A sulcus is a depression or fissure in the surface of the brain.
Where is the insular cortex?
The insular cortex (abbrev. insula) is a structure of the human brain. It lies deep to the brain's lateral surface, within the lateral sulcus which separates the temporal lobe and inferior parietal cortex.
What is sulukis?
If you mean Saluki...it's a breed of sight hound. Salukis would be the plural. Sulcus...is a deep narrow groove or furrow. As those between the convolutions of the brain.
What is a deep groove called in human anatomy?
A sulcus or fissure.
