Summary Introduction
To determine:
The part that acts as the sensory relay center of the brain and as a link between the nervous system and the endocrine system.
Introduction:
The forebrain of the early embryo divides into the telencephalon in the adult brain. The telencephalon becomes the cerebrum and the diencephalon. The diencephalon connects the brainstem to the cerebrum. It is mainly divided into four components: thalamus, subthalamus, epithalamus, and hypothalamus.
