Brodmann area 5 is a subdivision of the parietal cortex, part of the cortex in the human brain. BA5 is part of the superior parietal lobule and part of the postcentral gyrus . It is situated immediately posterior to the primary somatosensory cortex .
A Brodmann area is a region of the cerebral cortex, in the human or other primate brain, defined by its cytoarchitecture, or histological structure and organization of cells. The concept was first introduced by the German anatomist Korbinian Brodmann in the early 20th century. Brodmann mapped the human brain based on the varied cellular ...

[3] [4] [5] Brodmann area 7 is part of the superior parietal lobule, [3] [6] but some sources include Brodmann area 5. [6] The inferior parietal lobule is further subdivided into the supramarginal gyrus, the temporoparietal junction, and the angular gyrus. [3] [4] [5] The inferior parietal lobule corresponds to Brodmann areas 39 and 40. [3] [5]
Brodmann area 7 is part of the parietal cortex in the human brain. Situated posterior to the primary somatosensory cortex ( Brodmann areas 3, 1 and 2 ), and superior to the occipital lobe , this region is believed to play a role in visuo-motor coordination (e.g., in reaching to grasp an object).
Brodmann area 25 (BA25) is the subgenual area, area subgenualis or subgenual cingulate area in the cerebral cortex of the brain and delineated based on its cytoarchitectonic characteristics. It is the 25th " Brodmann area " defined by Korbinian Brodmann (thus its name).
Brodmann area 6 is a cytoarchitecturally defined portion of the frontal lobe of the guenon.Brodmann-1909 regarded it as topographically and cytoarchitecturally homologous to the human agranular frontal area 6 and noted that, in the monkey, area 4 is larger than area 6, whereas, in the human, area 6 is larger than area 4.
Brodmann area 10 (BA10, frontopolar prefrontal cortex, rostrolateral prefrontal cortex, or anterior prefrontal cortex) is the anterior-most portion of the prefrontal cortex in the human brain. [1]
