Detailed explanation-1: -A gyrus (plural: gyri) is a ridge on the surface of the brain. Each ridge is surrounded by fissures known as sulci (singular: sulcus). Gyri are unique structures that have an important evolutionary function; they increase the surface area of the brain up to an impressive 2000 centimeters squared.

Detailed explanation-2: -The surface of the cerebrum is imprinted with numerous ridges or convolutions called gyri. These gyri are separated by grooves; the shallow ones are called sulci and very deep ones are called fissures. The sulci serve as boundaries for the lobes of the cerebrum, the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes.
