5. central sulcus (precentral gyrus -- the primary motor area -- just anterior to sulcus, postcentral gyrus -the primary somatosensory area -- just posterior sulcus)

3. optic chiasma (In an intact animal, projecting forward from the chiasma are the optic nerves. They are
cut in these specimens.)
4. optic tract

Brain, Cross Section
Labels
1. corpus callosum
2. fornix
note: the fluid filled space between the corpus collosum and the fornix is a lateral ventricle. Within each
ventricle is a special network of capillaries called choroid plexus, which looks like lint trapped in the
ventricle. The choroid plexus works as a special filter for cerebrospinal fluid.
3. thalamus
note: between the thalamus and the fornix, and also running vertically through the middle of the thalamus,
is the third ventricle. See the note above.
4. hypothalamus, with mammillary body just to right of label
5. optic chiasma
6. pineal gland (body)
7. superior colliculus of corpora quadrgemina
8. inferior colliculus of corpora quadrigemina
9. cerebellum, showing arrangement of gray and white matter called "arbor vitae"
10. cerebral peduncles
11. pons
12. medulla
13. spinal cord (look closely to see the central canal of spinal cord)
14. cerebrum
15. fourth ventricle (fluid filled space between the cerebellum and medulla)
16. cerebral aqueduct (a channel for cerebrospinal fluid to move from the third ventricle to the fourth
ventricle
