This is the largest part of the brain, consisting of the left and right hemispheres.

• Cerebrum

• Cerebellum

• Fissures

• Diencephalon

This area of the brain includes the epithalamus, thalamus, metathalamus, and the hypothalams; also known as the interbrain.

• Diencephalon

• Occipital lobes

• Meninges

• Temporal lobe

These are uniformly positioned, deep grooves in the brain.

• Fissures

• Pons

• Lobes
