Definition of cerebral cortex in English English dictionary

The grey, folded, outermost layer of the cerebrum that is responsible for higher brain processes such as sensation, voluntary muscle movement, thought, reasoning, and memory

Surface layer of gray matter of the cerebrum that functions chiefly in coordination of higher nervous activity; called also pallium

The outer layer of the cerebral hemispheres It includes areas for very precise sensory processing, especially of visual and auditory details and sensations from the body It also executes fine, voluntary body movements and speech It is concerned with thoughts, mental evaluations, and goals

The part of your brain that coordinates all sensory and motor activities Different areas of it are specifically associated with memory, learning and behavior

The surface gray matter of the cerebral hemispheres (cerebrum) of the brain The cerebral cortex is considered responsible for receiving and analyzing sensory information, for conscious thought, and for movement

the layer of unmyelinated neurons (the gray matter) forming the cortex of the cerebrum

The large significant area of the brain

The outer 3 to 5 millimeters of the cerebrum; it controls most of the functions that are actually controlled by the cerebrum

A collection of several thin layers of cells covering the cerebrum; it is largely responsible for higher mental functions Cortex is Latin for "bark" or "rind " The most striking feature of the human brain A folded hemispherical sheet covering the cerebrum Most high level brain function takes place here The seat of the intellectual functioning that distinguishes us as human beings

Thin layer of gray matter on the surface of the brain

The Cerebral Cortex is the largest part of your brain It does a lot of brain work, like thinking, decisions, and creativity It's responsible for thinking and learning as well as the five senses, memory and emotion It covers much of the rest of your brain like a thinking cap

a thin layer of tissue on the surface of the brain, which is responsible for most high-level cognitive processes

The outer 2 mm (that's two thin coins worth) of the brain's cerebral hemispheres with a layered structure It isn't required for performing a lot of simple actions but seems essential for creating new episodic memories, the fancier associations, and many new movement programs Paleocortex (archicortex) such as hippocampus has a simpler structure and earlier evolutionary appearance than the six-plus-layered neocortex [29]

Pertaining to the cerebrum, the front and upper portion of the brain, including the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes

The outer layer of the cerebral hemispheres largely composed of gray matter

The outer layer of the brain that controls thinking, feeling, and voluntary movement

-the outer part of the cerebrum

The rest of your brain that coordinates all sensory and motor activities Different areas of it are specifically associated with memory, learning and behavior

The part of the brain that is visible from the outside The cerebral cortex is the outermost layer and consists of a collection of nerve cell bodies

The extensive outer layer of gray matter of the cerebral hemispheres, largely responsible for higher brain functions, including sensation, voluntary muscle movement, thought, reasoning, and memory. Layer of gray matter that constitutes the outer layer of the cerebrum and is responsible for integrating sensory impulses and for higher intellectual functions. It is divided into four lobes, roughly defined by major surface folds; sometimes the limbic system, or limbic lobe, is considered to be a fifth lobe. The frontal lobe controls motor activity and speech, the parietal controls touch and position, and the temporal lobe handles auditory reception and memory. The occipital lobe at the back of the brain holds the brain's major visual-reception area. The limbic lobe controls smell, taste, and emotional responses

Is the newspaper - sized ( 1/4 inch thinck) outermost layer of the cerebrum It is wrinkled Six layers deep and packed with brain cells

{i} wringled outer layer of the cerebral hemispheres

the thin, convoluted surface layer of gray matter of the cerebral hemispheres

Outermost layer of the cerebrum

The large, deeply folded outer layers of the brain that make our heads so big The cortex carries out complex perceptual, cognitive, and motor tasks

The main portion of the brain, responsible for intelligence, memory, and the detection and interpretation of sensation

surface layers of the brain

The outer portion of the brain, consisting of layers of nerve cells and the pathways that connect them The cerebral cortex is the part of the brain in which thought processes take place In Alzheimer's disease, nerve cells in the cerebral cortex die

The outer surface of the cerebrum, containing most of the neurons in the cerebrum
