The outer layer of the brain, known as the cerebral cortex, features several prominent valleys called sulci. Some of the major sulci include the central sulcus, which separates the frontal and parietal lobes, and the lateral sulcus (or Sylvian fissure), which separates the temporal lobe from the frontal and parietal lobes. Other notable sulci are the parieto-occipital sulcus and the calcarine sulcus, which are important for visual processing. These sulci increase the surface area of the brain, allowing for more complex neural connections.
