Introduction
Includes development and overview of the system (Paragraph format)
Structure and Function
Structures Present | Function | ||
---|---|---|---|
Hindbrain (Rhombencephalon) | Myelencephalon - Medulla Oblongata
Metencephalon - Pons and Cerebellum |
Medulla Oblongata - Cranial nerves, hearing, visceral fibres
Cerebellum - Posture, balance etc |
Medulla Oblongata
Pons
Cerebellum
- The cerebellum:
- Inhibits upper motor neurons
- Co-ordinates movement
Species Differences
- The size of the brain differs between species, but otherwise the structure is quite constant.
