NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -The cerebrum is divided into a left and right hemisphere by a longitudinal fissure that goes by many different names: longitudinal fissure, cerebral fissure, median longitudinal fissure, interhemispheric fissure.

Detailed explanation-2: -The longitudinal fissure (or cerebral fissure, great longitudinal fissure, median longitudinal fissure, interhemispheric fissure) is the deep groove that separates the two cerebral hemispheres of the vertebrate brain. Lying within it is a continuation of the dura mater (one of the meninges) called the falx cerebri.

Detailed explanation-3: -The longitudinal fissure separates the two cerebral hemispheres and the transverse fissure is what separates the cerebrum from the cerebellum. Utilizing your knowledge of the brain model, identify the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes of the cerebrum.

Detailed explanation-4: -The deep furrows are called fissures and shallow ones are called sulci (singluar; sulcus). The ridges between the sulci are known as a gyri (singular; gyrus). Major sulci and fissures divide each hemisphere into four lobes: the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes.
