An Introduction to the Organization of the Brain 
• The Ventricles of the Brain 
• Ventricles are fluid-filled cavities 
• Filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) 
• Fluid transports nutrients to the CNS and transports 
waste away from the CNS 
• CSF also provides protection 
• There are four ventricles 
• Ventricles 1 and 2 (called lateral ventricles) are in the 
cerebral hemispheres (separated by a partition called 
the septum pellucidum) 
• Ventricle 3 is in the diencephalon 
• Ventricle 4 lies between the pons and the cerebellum

Protection and Support of the Brain 
• Protection involves: 
• Bones of the skull 
• Parietal, frontal, occipital, and temporal bones 
• Cranial meninges 
• Dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater 
• Cerebrospinal fluid 
• CSF is produced by choroid plexus in the brain 
ventricles. 
• CSF is drained at arachnoid granulation into the 
dural sinuses. 
• Blood–brain barrier

The Cerebrum 
 The cerebrum is the largest, most superior portion of the human brain. 
 Each cerebral hemisphere receives sensory information from and 
generates motor commands to the opposite side of the body. 
 The two hemispheres have some functional differences, although 
anatomically they appear to be identical. 
The cerebral hemispheres are separated by longitudinal fissure. 
Cortical surface of the brain forms a series of grooves called sulci. 
The sulcus between frontal and parietal lobe is central sulcus. This 
sulcus functionally separates the sensory and motor part of cerebrum. 
The sulcus between parietal and temporal lobe id lateral sulcus. 
The eminence between two sulsi is called gyrus.

The Cerebrum 
• The Basal Nuclei 
• These are masses of gray matter embedded in 
the white matter inferior to the lateral ventricles 
• Consist of: 
• Caudate nucleus 
• Putamen 
• Globus pallidus 
• Claustrum 
• Amygdaloid body

The Cerebrum 
• The Basal Nuclei 
• Caudate nucleus, putamen, and globus 
pallidus 
• Control the cycles of arm and leg movements when 
walking 
• Claustrum 
• Plays a role in subconscious processing of visual 
information. It focuses attention on specific patterns 
or relevant features (watching movie!) 
• Amygdaloid body 
• Component of the limbic system

The Cerebrum 
• The Limbic System 
• Located between the cerebrum and the 
diencephalon just superior to the corpus 
callosum 
• Functions: 
• Establishes emotional states 
• Links the conscious functions with the unconscious 
autonomic functions 
• Facilitates memory storage and retrieval

The Cranial Nerves 
• There are 12 pairs of cranial nerves 
• These nerves innervate the periphery emerging 
from the brain (not the spinal cord) 
• These nerves are on the ventrolateral surface of 
the brain 
• They are numbered beginning at the anterior 
aspect of the brain 
• They are numbered CN I to CN XII

This sulcus functionally separates the sensory and motor part of cerebrum. The sulcus between parietal and temporal lobe id lateral sulcus. The eminence between two sulsi is called gyrus. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
