Brain structure and Function | CNS |

The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The brain plays a central role in the control of most bodily functions, including awareness, movements, sensations, thoughts, speech, and memory. Some reflex movements can occur via spinal cord pathways without the participation of brain structures. The spinal cord is connected to a section of the brain called the brainstem and runs through the spinal canal. Cranial nerves exit the brainstem. Nerve roots exit the spinal cord to both sides of the body. The spinal cord carries signals (messages) back and forth between the brain and the peripheral nerves. Cerebrospinal fluid surrounds the brain and the spinal cord and also circulates within the cavities (called ventricles) of the central nervous system. The leptomeninges surround the brain and the spinal cord. The cerebrospinal fluid circulates between 2 meningeal layers called the pia matter and the arachnoid (or pia-arachnoid membranes). The Brain consist of three parts, Fore brain, Mid brain and hind brain Fore brain divided into telencephalon and diencephalon, telencephalon contains cerebrum and olfactory bulb, diencephalon contains thalamus, hippocampus, amygdala, hypothalamus and pituitary gland, Hind brain consist of cerebellum, pons and medulla oblongata. #HumanBrain #TheBrain #BrainAnatomy&Physiology
