Question
Chapter 14.3, Problem 3AYLO
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The location, gross anatomy and general functions of midbrain and the cranial nerves that arise from the midbrain. The specific functions of its colliculi, substantianigra, and central gray matter.
Introduction:
Midbrain arises from the mesencephalon in the embryonic development of the brain. It is situated between the pons and cerebrum which is seen around the cerebral aqueduct. It has nerve fibers and nerve cell bodies. It connects the spinal cord and upper part of the brain. Nerve cell bodies act as control centers for various nerve fibers.
