    right hemispheres. It can collect data from sensory organs and nerve cells. In this essay, you’ll learn about 3 subtopics about the brain: how does the brain work, what are the lobes of the brain, and what do the left and right hemispheres do? There are many ways how the brain works. The main way is the brain collects data from sensory organs and nerve cells, but that’s not all. The main structure of the brain is the cerebrum. There are two parts: the left hemisphere and the right hemisphere. Two

    regulates diverse processes such as specification of dorsal fate, proliferation and axon guidance. In the forebrain, the roof plate is not only involved in patterning but is also involved in the division of the single forebrain vesicle into the two cerebral hemispheres, the failure of which leads to a devastating developmental disorder- holoprosencephaly. Although several molecular players such as BMPs, Wnts and Shh have been identified as crucial regulators of roof plate mediated patterning of the forebrain

    sensory domains used to guide behavior. It must have systems to create the sensory world, systems to produce behavior, and systems to integrate the two (). For that reason the very complex brain is organized into six interconnected divisions and two hemispheres that preform specific functions. The hindbrain or brain stem consists of four parts. The first is the medulla, which is actually an extension of the spinal cord into the skull. Other than containing tracts up and down from the spinal cord to other
