Primary Brain Vesicles • Prosencephalon (Forebrain) • Smell • Mesoncephalon (Midbrain) • Vision • Rhombencephalon (Hindbrain) • Hearing Figure 15.1: Primary brain vesicles
Primary Brain Vesicles (con’t) Figure 15.2: Basic brain plan. Figure 15.3: Brain divisions.
Hindbrain • Myelencephalon • Medulla oblongata • Involuntary reflexes • Vagal lobe • Metencephalon • Cerebellum • Roof of metencephalon • Reflex control of skel. muscle • Pons Figure 15.4: Neural tube development.
Hindbrain (con’t) • Lateral ventricles • Two cerebral hemispheres • Posterior choroid plexus • Roof in hindbrain • 4th ventricle tissue • Cerebral spinal fluid • Tela choroidea • Roof of medulla • Thin membrane Figure 15.5: Choroid plexus shown of larval anuran.
Divisions and Vesicles Figure 15.6: Divisions of the brain and ventricles numbered.
Midbrain • No subdivisions • Optic lobes • Optic reflex centers • Well developed in birds • Auditory lobes • Caudal to optic lobes • Superior (optic) and inferior (auditory) colliculi- when lobes occur together • Corpora quadrigemina collectively Figure 15.7: Mesoncephalon and tectum region.
Midbrain (con’t) • 3rd ventricle • Optic ventricles- extension to optic lobe • Ventricles disappear in higher phylogeny • Cerebral aqueduct • Restricted passageways • Conducts 3rd and 4th ventricle • Aqueduct of Sylvius when restricted further Figure 15.8: Cerebral aqueduct and ventricles of brain.
Forebrain- Diencephalon • Optic chiasma • Two optic nerves cross • Pituitary gland • Caudal to optic chiasma • Saccusvasculosus • Posterior to pituitary in some fish • Depth receptor Figure 15.9: Regions of the diencephalon of a shark with third ventricle in red
Forebrain- Diencephalon (con’t) • Hypothalamus • Floor of diencephalon • Autonomic nervous system • Thalamus • Walls of diencephalon • 3rd ventricle cavity • Communicates with lateral ventricles • Foramen of Monro Figure 15.10: Medial view of the brain showing thalamus and hypothalamus of the diencephalon.
Forebrain- Diencephalon (con’t) • Epithalamus • Several evaginations • Roof of diencephalon • Paraphysis anteriorly • Epiphyseal complex • Pineal • Photoreceptors • Parapineal • Pineal eye (3rd eye) Figure 15.11: Epithalamus; gross mid-sagittal section of the human brain. Figure 15.12: Pineal in detail
Forebrain- Telencephalon • Cerebral hemispheres posterior • Rhinencephalon anterior • Olfaction • Lower vertebrates • Rhinencephalon prominent • Hemispheres smaller • Higher vertebrates • Hemispheres increase in size • Olfactory get smaller Figure 15.13: Front section of cerebral hemisphere formation
Craniate Brains Figure 15.14: Craniate brains.
Craniate Brains (con’t) Figure 15.15: Dorsal view of craniate brains
Fish Cerebrum • Primitive sensory • Pallium- dorsal area • Motor area • Subpallium- ventral area • Globus pallidus (Striatum) Figure 15.16: Globus pallidus of fish; left cerebral hemisphere
Amphibian Cerebrum • Similar pallium and globuspallidus • Split left and right hemispheres Figure 15.17: Globus pallidus of amphibian; left cerebral hemisphere
Reptile Cerebrum • Cerebrum is huge compared to amphibians • Increase of lateral walls • Pushes into lateral ventricle • Dorsal ventricular ridge forms • Receives visual, auditory, and sensory stimuli Figure 15.18: Globus pallidus of reptile and bird; left cerebral hemisphere
Bird Cerebrum • Similar to reptiles • Avian ridge (hyperstiatum) • Stratum of neurons that capped ridge • Processes visual information • Important to instinctive stereotypic behavior • Migration and courtship
Mammal Cerebrum • Lateral ventricles extremely expanded • Neocortex • Higher mental facilities • Grooves (sulci) • Folds (gyrae) Figure 15.19: Neocortex of mammalian brain.
Mammal Cerebrum (con’t) Figure 15.20: Ventral view of human brain
Mammal Cerebrum (con’t) • Portion of primitive brain retained • Ventral medially • Hippocampus- ancient olfactory pallium • Memory storage? • Globus pallidum pushed interiorly • Basal ganglia • Changes in basal ganglia motor dysfunction • Parkinson’s Disease Figure 15.21: Globus pallidus of human; left cerebral hemisphere
Mammal Cerebrum (con’t) Figure 15.22: Sagittal section of the human brain
Cranial Nerves • Amniotes have 12 • Anamniotes have 10 • Terminal nerve (Nerve 0)- uncommon in humans • Associated with pheromone receptors Figure 15.23: Cranial nerve locations on the brain.
