The hindbrain, rhombencephalon (shaped like a rhombus) is a developmental categorization of portions of the central nervous system in vertebrates. It includes the medulla , pons , and cerebellum . Together they support vital bodily processes.
Embryonic vertebrate subdivisions of the developing human brain hindbrain or rhombencephalon is a developmental categorization of portions of the central nervous system in vertebrates. It includes the medulla , pons , and cerebellum .
Vesicles of the forebrain (prosencephalon), the midbrain (mesencephalon), and hindbrain (rhombencephalon) are the three primary brain vesicles during the early development of the nervous system. At the five-vesicle stage, the forebrain separates into the diencephalon ( thalamus , hypothalamus , subthalamus , and epithalamus ) and the ...

These develop into five secondary brain vesicles – the prosencephalon is subdivided into the telencephalon and diencephalon, and the rhombencephalon into the metencephalon and myelencephalon. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] During these early vesicle stages, the walls of the neural tube contain neural stem cells in a region called the neuroepithelium or ...
In the vertebrate embryo, a rhombomere is a transiently divided segment of the developing neural tube, within the hindbrain region (a neuromere) in the area that will eventually become the rhombencephalon. The rhombomeres appear as a series of slightly constricted swellings in the neural tube, caudal to the cephalic flexure.
Diagram of signal processing in the auditory system The human brain is provided with information about light, sound, the chemical composition of the atmosphere, temperature, the position of the body in space ( proprioception ), the chemical composition of the bloodstream, and more.
These swellings are known as the primary brain vesicles and represent the beginnings of the forebrain (prosencephalon), midbrain (mesencephalon), and hindbrain (rhombencephalon). [65] [66] Neural crest cells (derived from the ectoderm) populate the lateral edges of the plate at the neural folds.
