Detailed explanation-1: -There exist three vascular layers within the cerebellar cortex: superficial, middle and deep. The superficial vascular layer is situated within the molecular layer, the middle within the Purkinje cell layer, and the deep within the granular layer.
Detailed explanation-2: -[6] In the three-layered cerebellar cortex, the Purkinje cells’ bodies make up the middle Purkinje cell layer, while their dendritic trees with the parallel fibers and some of the inhibitory cells, such as basket cells, make up the outer molecular layer.
Detailed explanation-3: -Functionally, the cerebellar cortex is divided into three layers: an outer synaptic layer (also called the molecular layer), an intermediate discharge layer (the Purkinje layer), and an inner receptive layer (the granular layer).
