What do the cerbral cortex and cerebral cortex have in common?
They are the same. The word cerbral is misspelled and should be cerebral. This the covering of the brain. Cortex means "bark", like the bark on a tree.
Is the cortex and the cerebral cortex the same thing?
No the Cortex is the outer layer of a internal organ, a cerebal cotex is, specificly, the outer layer of the brain which contains grey matter and neurons....but after saying that, a Cortex is a outer casing in general
Which part of the brain distinguishes animal brains from human brains?
The amount of cerebral cortex is larger. a cat has small amounts. Humans have much more and is a little more than a ape. Animals have the same brain structure as humans, it is just managed differently. (the cerebral cortex covers the entirety of the brain)
Where visual stimuli received and analysed?
The visual stimuli are received by occipital lobe. The same is analysed by cerebral cortex.
Are the frontal lobes and frontal cortex the same?
The Cerebrum is the largest part of the brain consisting of the four lobes of the brain. These are the parietal lobe, occipital lobe, frontal lobe, and the temporal lobe. Each lobe carries many different responsibilities. A few of these are as follows: Frontal lobe- reasoning, planning, emotions, speech, and movements. Temporal Lobe- memory, speach, auditory stimuli, and perception and recognition. The parietal lobe-orientation, recognition, stimuli. The Occipital Lobe-visual processing. The Cerebral Cortex is the material filling the grooves seen in brain images. It is responsible for many different senses such as memory, attention, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness. Alot of the movements associated with the cerebral cortex are voluntary, but not all are.
Neuroscientists have recently found a biological basis for observational learning in the functioning of in the cerebral cortex?
Observational learning involves the process of acquiring new behaviors by watching others. Studies have shown that mirror neurons in the cerebral cortex play a role in this type of learning by firing not only when an individual performs an action, but also when they observe someone else performing the same action. This suggests a biological basis for how we learn from others through observation.
How much brains do a dolphin have?
A dolphins brain and therefore its cerebral cortex is about the same size as a humans, however some dolphin species have a more deeply folded cerebral cortex than in humans but the cortex itself is not as thick. The level of folding found in the dolphins brain is so similar to that of humans as to suggest that they have a level of intelligence comparable to our own. So to answer the question what is the size of a dolphins cerebral cortex, the data seams to suggest it is about the same as our own.
Is everyone's motor cortex the same?
no
What is a fiber tract that provides for communication between different parts of the same cerebral hemisphere?
These are referred to as associational connections when communication is between different parts of cortex in the same hemisphere. There also exists numerous fiber tracts between sub-cortical and cortical structures such as the optic radiation within the same hemisphere.
What are the three types of fibers that can be found in the white matter of cerebrum?
association fibres = connect the different cortical areas in the same hemispherecommisural fibres = connect one part of the CNS on one side with the same part on the opposite sideprojection fibres = connect the cerebral cortex with lower centres
Where is memory is located in the brain?
Memory traces for events are believed to be stored throughout the brain, including areas of the cerebral cortex that are associated with a given memory. For instance, the occipital lobe is associated with vision, and thus a memory involving a visual component will eventually be stored at least in part in the occipital cortex. The same can be said for each of the other cortical lobes. The hippocampus is a brain structure integral for the formation of new memories and is the region most extensively lesioned in Alzheimer's Disease.
How does the parietal work?
The parietal lobe is one of the four major lobes, regions of the cerebral cortex. This particular lobe works to process sensory information for other parts of the brain, and at its core works via the same electrical pulses the rest of the brain uses to function.
