    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrigeminal_cistern

    The quadrigeminal cistern [1] (also cistern of great cerebral vein, [1] vein of Galen cistern, [2] superior cistern, [2] [3] Bichat's canal, [3] or peripineal cistern [2]) is a subarachnoid cistern situated between splenium of corpus callosum, and the superior surface of the cerebellum.

  3. Subarachnoid cisterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subarachnoid_cisterns

    Interpeduncular cistern. It is situated at the base of the brain, between the two cerebral peduncles of midbrain and dorsum sellae and continuous below with the pontine cistern and superiorly with the chiasmatic cistern. It contains: The optic chiasm; The bifurcation of the basilar artery; Peduncular segments of the posterior cerebral arteries ...

  4. Ambient cistern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_cistern

    Each ambient cistern extends anterolaterally around the mesencephalon to become continuous rostrally/anteriorly with the interpeduncular cistern. [2] Each ambient cistern is continuous dorsally/posteriorly with the quadrigeminal cistern; [3] [4] inversely, each ambient cistern is an anterolateral extension of the quadrigeminal cistern on either side [2] (some sources define the quadrigeminal ...

  5. Interpeduncular cistern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpeduncular_cistern

    The interpeduncular cistern (or basal cistern [1]) is the subarachnoid cistern situated between the dorsum sellae (anteriorly) [2] and the two cerebral peduncles [1] [3] [2] at the front of the midbrain. [3] Its roof is represented by the floor of the third ventricle (i.e. posterior perforated substance, and the two mammillary bodies).

  6. Cerebellopontine cistern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_cistern

    The cerebellopontine cistern [2] (also pontocerebellar cistern, [1] cerebellopontine angle cistern, or angle cistern [2]) is a paired subarachnoid cistern at the cerebellopontine angle, an angle created between the cerebellum and the pons on either side. Each cerebellopontine cistern is continuous anteromedially with the prepontine cistern. [2]

  7. Ground tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_tissue

    Sclerenchyma is the tissue which makes the plant hard and stiff. Sclerenchyma is the supporting tissue in plants. Two types of sclerenchyma cells exist: fibers cellular and sclereids. Their cell walls consist of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Sclerenchyma cells are the principal supporting cells in plant tissues that have ceased elongation.

  8. Chiasmatic cistern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiasmatic_cistern

    The cistern is situated superior to the optic chiasm, and inferior to the rostrum of corpus callosum. [3] The cistern is an extension of [1] /communicates inferiorly with the interpeduncular cistern. [2] The cistern of lamina terminalis connects the chiasmatic cistern with the pericallosal cistern. [4]

  9. Meristem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meristem

    All plant organs arise ultimately from cell divisions in the apical meristems, followed by cell expansion and differentiation. Primary growth gives rise to the apical part of many plants. The growth of nitrogen-fixing root nodules on legume plants such as soybean and pea is either determinate or indeterminate. Thus, soybean (or bean and Lotus ...
