Cerebellum
Understand what you see.
Coordinates movement, posture and balance.
Zoom into the original labels. Practise pointing out each structure, then explain it aloud. Diagrams are teaching references; specimen appearance and slide staining vary.
How to recognise it.
- Lies posterior to the pons and medulla
- Narrow folia cover the surface
- Vermis joins the two hemispheres
Point them out.
