1. the ______central gyrus contains the somatic sensory map, of the contralateral body.

2. diencephalon: contains the ________ and the ________

3. There is the ________ olivary nucleus, considered part of the pons and aids the perception of sound. And there's the ________ olivary nucleus, which is mainly involved in cerebellar motor-learning and function.

4. Down below the calcarine sulcus is the ________ gyrus.

5. Dendrites that are smooth-- that don't have spines-- tend to grow out from cells that have a ______ effect

6. _______trician: a physician who specializes in the care of older people

7. The lateral fissure tends to be longer and STRAIGHTER in the left hemisphere compared to the right. And this, we think, accommodates some of the specialized regions of the posterior temporal lobe and inferior parietal lobule that have to do with processing human _______.

8. One of the very interesting types of cells that we find in the cerebral cortex is call the pyramidal neuron, and it's called that because the cell body is shaped something like a little pyramid. And from that cell body grow out a series of dendrites, and from the apex of the pyramid is one rather thick, stout dendrite that we call the ______ dendrite because it grows out from the apex towards the surface of the brain. At the base of the pyramid are a variety of other dendrites called basal dendrites. That single () dendrite might have special properties

9. olivary body: the olivary bodies or simply olives are a pair of prominent oval structures in the medulla oblongata, the lower portion of the brainstem. They contain the olivary nuclei. There is the superior olivary nucleus, considered part of the pons and aids the perception of _______. And there's the inferior olivary nucleus, which is mainly involved in cerebellar ________-learning and function.

10. So, just on top of the _____ecephalon is this broad band of white matter called the Corpus Callosum, and that is a very obvious visual feature that helps define the contour of this medial set of gyri that sit above it.

11. cortical ______ cell: a kind of interneuron; send axons over a much shorter distance. So the cell has a cell body, it's typically multi_______, meaning that there are dendrites that go off in different directions, and then there is an axon. And that axon may branch over the nearby territory within the dendritic tree of that cell or just beyond it. So this is called an interneuron, because it doesn't project very far at all.

12. ______ tendon organ: within tendons; they respond to an increase in tendon TENSION

13. olivary ______ nucleus: receives from intrinsically photosensitive RGCs that use melanopsin and is responsible for pupil contraction

14. glia: support the metabolic and the signaling functions of neurons, which often involves both electrical and chemical signals. () participate in the forming of neural circuits and in a variety of forms of synaptic ______. This is a very exciting, new aspect of glial cell biology that's just now beginning to open up. And we're coming to see glial cells as really being active participants in the process of making new synaptic connections in the brain. Certain types of glia, they make myelin, which is a form of insulation around axons that aids significantly in the propagation of electrical signals along this component of the neuron. Glia contribute to the formation of the ________-brain barrier. Glia participate in the ________ response in injured neural tissue, and that includes phagocytosis of cellular debris. Other types of glial cells contribute to the formation of ______ tissue in damaged brain and spinal cord, and so this is part of the way that the brain responds to injury.

15. The gyrus that forms the interior bank is called, the ______central gyrus, which contains the motor map of the contralateral body.

16. oligodendrocytes add _________s that influence the growth of axions both in the developing brain and in the recovering brain that's undergoing a process by which it will try to re-generate connections that have been lost due to injury. Now, unfortunately the oligodendrocyte also presents ()s that are subject to immunological attack in certain diseases of the central nervous system. A preeminent example of which would be multiple sclerosis in which oligodendrocytes are the subject of the immunological attack, and myelin can break down, and with the breakdown of myelin, is a loss in the efficiency of the conduction of neural signals along axons, and that can lead to neurological dysfunction.

17. The _______ sulcus is the division between the frontal lobe and the parietal lobe

18. pineal gland: A brain structure located near the thalamus that secretes ______.

19. metencephalon: contains the ________ and the ________

20. ________s are that category of glial cell that contributes to the formation of the blood-brain barrier.

21. A cortical pyramidal cell (the one with the single apical dendrite) is a type of _______ neuron, because its axon can travel for a good distance within the CNS/PNS. These cells are often excitatory

22. The parieto-occipital sulcus marks one point of demarcation between the parietal lobe and the occipital lobe. The other is a feature of the inferior aspect of the hemisphere called the pre-occipital _______ which is attributable to a flap of dura that sits between the cerebellum and the occipital lobe called the tentorium. So an imaginary line between the parieto-occipital sulcus and that pre-occipital () is what divides the parietal lobe from the occipital lobe

23. the cortico_______ tract goes through the medullary pyramids. These tracts contain the fibers of the motor cortex that are sending their axons down into the spinal cord to govern voluntary movement.

24. And astrocytes are that type of glia that can differentiate into a type of cell that can form fibrillary ________ tissue. With in injured brain and so this is important if there has been injury and that injury is evolves in time to form let's say a small cavity as cellular debris is removed, then that cavity can be filled up by astrocytes that will grow in and form a kind of () tissue to occupy that space in damaged brain.

25. myelin increases membrane ________-- it makes the axon less leaky, preserving more current for during passive flow
