  2. Terminal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_nerve

    The connections between the terminal nerve and the olfactory system have been extensively studied in human embryos. olfactory nerve fibers enter the brain at stage 17, fibers from the vomeronasal organ and fibers of the terminal nerve enter the brain at stages 17 and 18. [9] During prenatal development some of the ganglion cells are lost. [7]

  3. Brachial plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachial_plexus

    The brachial plexus is a network of nerves (nerve plexus) formed by the anterior rami of the lower four cervical nerves and first thoracic nerve (C5, C6, C7, C8, and T1).This plexus extends from the spinal cord, through the cervicoaxillary canal in the neck, over the first rib, and into the armpit, it supplies afferent and efferent nerve fibers to the chest, shoulder, arm, forearm, and hand.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamina_terminalis

    The lamina terminalis is a thin layer that forms the median portion of the wall of the forebrain.It stretches from the interventricular foramen (foramen of Monro) to the recess at the base of the optic stalk (optic nerve) and contains the vascular organ of the lamina terminalis, which regulates the osmotic concentration of the blood.

  6. Cerebral arteries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_arteries

    The cerebral arteries describe three main pairs of arteries and their branches, which perfuse the cerebrum of the brain. The three main arteries are the: Anterior cerebral artery (ACA), which supplies blood to the medial portion of the brain, including the superior parts of the frontal and anterior parietal lobes [1]

  7. Human brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_brain

    The human brain is the central organ of the human nervous system, and with the spinal cord, comprises the central nervous system. It consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum. The brain controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the sensory nervous ...

  8. Stria terminalis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stria_terminalis

    The stria terminalis (or terminal stria) is a structure in the brain consisting of a band of fibers running along the lateral margin of the ventricular surface of the thalamus. Serving as a major output pathway of the amygdala , the stria terminalis runs from its centromedial division to the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus .

  9. Filum terminale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filum_terminale

    The filum terminale is situated centrally [2] amid the spinal nerve roots of the cauda equina [3] [2] (but is not itself a part of the cauda equina [2]).. The inferior-most spinal nerve, the coccygeal nerve, leaves the spinal cord at the level of the conus medullaris via respective vertebrae through their intervertebral foramina, superior to the filum terminale.
