Cerebrum & cortical lobes

STRUCTURE & FUNCTION

Understand what you see.

Supports voluntary movement, sensation, language and higher functions.

Zoom into the original labels. Practise pointing out each structure, then explain it aloud. Diagrams are teaching references; specimen appearance and slide staining vary.

01 / IDENTIFICATION

How to recognise it.

  1. Two cerebral hemispheres are separated by the longitudinal fissure
  2. Central sulcus separates frontal and parietal lobes
  3. Lateral sulcus separates temporal lobe from frontal and parietal regions
02 / KEY STRUCTURES

Point them out.

Tap a number to open its reference, zoom in and locate the structure. Numbers stay the same across views. This key follows landmarks visible in the reference images.

03 / VIVA PRACTICE

Think first. Then reveal.

Say your answer aloud before opening the suggested response.

01How would you identify cerebrum & cortical lobes?
SUGGESTED ANSWER

Two cerebral hemispheres are separated by the longitudinal fissure. Central sulcus separates frontal and parietal lobes. Lateral sulcus separates temporal lobe from frontal and parietal regions.

02Where is the primary motor cortex?
SUGGESTED ANSWER

In the precentral gyrus of the frontal lobe, immediately anterior to the central sulcus.
