  2. Paracentral lobule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_lobule

    In neuroanatomy, the paracentral lobule is on the medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere and is the continuation of the precentral and postcentral gyri.The paracentral lobule controls motor and sensory innervations of the contralateral lower extremity.

  3. Precuneus - Wikipedia

    Sensorimotor Anterior Region. This occurs around the margin of the cingulate sulcus ( blue in figure) and is connected with sensorimotor areas of the cerebral cortex such as the paracentral lobule, supplementary motor area, premotor cortex, somatosensory area (Brodmann area 2), parietal operculum and insula. fMRI Research upon humans finds a connection with the caudalmost part of ...

  4. Brodmann area 7 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_7

    Brodmann area 7 is part of the parietal cortex in the human brain.Situated posterior to the primary somatosensory cortex (Brodmann areas 3, 1 and 2), and superior to the occipital lobe, this region is believed to play a role in visuo-motor coordination (e.g., in reaching to grasp an object).

  5. Motor cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_cortex

    It is located on the anterior paracentral lobule on the medial surface. 2. The premotor cortex is responsible for some aspects of motor control, possibly including the preparation for movement, the sensory guidance of movement, the spatial guidance of reaching, or the direct control of some movements with an emphasis on control of proximal and ...

  6. Cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_cortex

    The posterior cingulate cortex (Brodmann's area 23) sends projections to dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (Brodmann's area 9), anterior prefrontal cortex (Brodmann's area 10), orbitofrontal cortex (Brodmanns’ area 11), the parahippocampal gyrus, posterior part of the inferior parietal lobule, the presubiculum, the superior temporal sulcus and ...

  7. Paracentral sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_sulcus

    The paracentral sulcus is a sulcus of the brain. It forms the paracentral lobule's anterior border. [1] It is part of the cingulate sulcus. Gallery

  8. Brodmann area 5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_5

    In guenon Brodmann area 5 is a subdivision of the parietal lobe defined on the basis of cytoarchitecture.It occupies primarily the superior parietal lobule. Brodmann-1909 considered it topologically and cytoarchitecturally homologous to the preparietal area 5 of the human.

  9. Angular gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_gyrus

    The angular gyrus is a region of the brain lying mainly in the posteroinferior region of the parietal lobe, occupying the posterior part of the inferior parietal lobule. [1] It represents the Brodmann area 39. [1] Its significance is in transferring visual information to Wernicke's area, in order to make meaning out of visually perceived words. [2]
