Brain Dissection. Orientation of the Brain. Label the Following Aspects of the Brain: Anterior Posterior Lateral Medial. Orientation Continued. Label the Following Aspects of the Brain: Anterior Posterior Dorsal Ventral. Planes of Orientation. Draw the following Cross Sections:
E N D
Orientation of the Brain • Label the Following Aspects of the Brain: • Anterior • Posterior • Lateral • Medial
Orientation Continued • Label the Following Aspects of the Brain: • Anterior • Posterior • Dorsal • Ventral
Planes of Orientation Draw the following Cross Sections: • Frontal or Coronal • Saggital
Planes of Orientation Draw the following Cross Sections: • Frontal or Coronal • Transverse or Axial
Meninges: the protective coverings • dura mater: tough outer covering (may have been mostly removed) • arachnoid layer and pia mater likely still cover brain Dura mater
The Gyri and Sulci • Remove the arachnoid layer and blood vessels carefully by using tweezers. • This should make the gyri and sulci very visible Gyrus Sulcus
The Brain Stemaka medulla oblongatahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VF5PyeMG8Lo&feature=related This area is made up of the: • Pons • Medulla Medulla Pons
The Cerebellum cerebellum
The Cerebrum • Label the Following: • Frontal Lobe • Parietal Lobe • Temporal Lobe • Occipital Lobe • Hint: they correspond with the bones of the skull
The Cerebrum Continued Label the Following: • Temporal Lobe • Parietal Lobe
Observing the Internal Brain Anatomy • Cut the brain in a saggital cross section using your scalpel
Corpus Callosum http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClzaP8HN2wc • Thalamus • Hypothalamus • Pons • Medulla Corpus Callosum Thalamus Hypothalamus Medulla Pons
