Detailed explanation-1: -The cerebellum can also be divided by function. There are three functional areas of the cerebellum – the cerebrocerebellum, the spinocerebellum and the vestibulocerebellum. Cerebrocerebellum – the largest division, formed by the lateral hemispheres.
Detailed explanation-2: -Three paired cerebellar peduncles contain the information flow to and from the cerebellum: the superior (a.k.a. brachium conjunctivum, SCP), the middle (a.k.a. the brachium pontis, MCP) and the inferior cerebellar peduncles (a.k.a. restiform body, ICP).
Detailed explanation-3: -The cerebellum consists of two major parts (Figure 5.2A). The cerebellar deep nuclei (or cerebellar nuclei) are the sole output structures of the cerebellum. These nuclei are encased by a highly convoluted sheet of tissue called the cerebellar cortex, which contains almost all of the neurons in the cerebellum.
Detailed explanation-4: -anterior lobe. posterior lobe. flocculonodular lobe.
