The cerebrum (pl.: cerebra), telencephalon or endbrain [1] is the largest part of the brain, containing the cerebral cortex (of the two cerebral hemispheres) as well as several subcortical structures, including the hippocampus, basal ganglia, and olfactory bulb. In the human brain, the cerebrum is the uppermost region of the central nervous system.
Located in the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone. Animal research indicates that the terminal nerve is involved in the detection of pheromones. [2] I Olfactory: Purely sensory Telencephalon: Located in the olfactory foramina in the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone. Transmits the sense of smell from the nasal cavity. [3] II Optic: Sensory

The bird brain is divided into a number of sections, each with a different function. The cerebrum or telencephalon is divided into two hemispheres, and controls higher functions. The telencephalon is dominated by a large pallium, which corresponds to the mammalian cerebral cortex and is responsible for the cognitive functions of birds. The ...
The temporal pole is located between the frontal and occipital poles, ... The cerebral hemispheres are derived from the telencephalon.
The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting primarily of the brain and spinal cord.The CNS is so named because the brain integrates the received information and coordinates and influences the activity of all parts of the bodies of bilaterally symmetric and triploblastic animals—that is, all multicellular animals except sponges and diploblasts.
The prosencephalon divides into the telencephalon, which forms the cortex of the developed brain, and the diencephalon. The ventricles contained within the telencephalon become the lateral ventricles, and the ventricles within the diencephalon become the third ventricle. The rhombencephalon divides into a metencephalon and myelencephalon.
