Defference between :
1. Cerebellu and cerebrum (4points atleast)
2. Hindbrain and forebrain (4points atleast)
Solution:
1. Differences are as follows:
2. Differences are as follows:
1. Differences are as follows:
Cerebrum | Cerebellum |
It is the largest part of the brain and constitutes four-fifth of its weight | It is a part of the hindbrain |
The forebrain has sensory regions, which receive sensory impulses from various receptors | responsible for maintaining the posture and equilibrium of the body |
A certain part of the cerebrum primarily controls intelligence, learning, memory, thinking, and the ability to articulate speech | It also coordinates the contraction of voluntary muscles, according to the directions of the cerebrum. |
It also has motor regions, which control the movement of various muscles such as leg muscles | cerebellum is involved in the coordination of voluntary motor movement, balance and equilibrium and muscle tone. |
2. Differences are as follows:
Forebrain | Hindbrain |
Forebrain is the largest division of brain and accounts for 2/3rd of brain mass | Hindbrain is the second-largest division of brain |
It is located at most forward portion of brain. | It is located at lower back part of brain. |
It contains olfactory and optic cranial nerves. | It contains facial, vagus, accessory, hypoglossal, etc. types of cranial nerves. |
It is responsible for memory, intelligence, regulation of body temperature, etc. | It is responsible for controlling visceral functions like regulation of heart rate, respiration, etc. |
