the right or left half of the brain. Each cerebral hemisphere consists of cerebral cortex and basal ganglia.
Half, or one side of the brain. Typically, the left side of the brain controls language and the right side deals with spatial orientation.
One of the large, paired structures that together constitute the cerebrum of the brain.
The cerebral hemisphere is either the right or left side of the cerebrum.
One side of the cerebrum (upper brain); each hemisphere contains four lobes (frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal).
Pair of rounded structures on either side of the midline of the brain that are partially separated by the longitudinal (interhemispheric) cerebral fissure. image
one side of the brain. Each cerebral hemisphere is vascularized by a carotid artery. The right hemisphere controls the left hemicorpus (and language in left-handed persons). The left hemisphere controls the right hemicorpus (and language in right-handed persons).
The cerebral hemisphere forms one half of a brain. Humans (and many other types of animals) have a brain divided into two hemispheres. Each hemisphere has corresponding structures, and structural locations; however, they are not mirror images. Instead, the hemispheres usually are asymmetrical giving specialized function to each hemisphere. Each hemisphere also has an outer layer of grey matter called the cerebral cortex.
one side of the cerebrum, the left or right side of the cerebrum.
Two large masses of nerve cells and fibers constituting the bulk of the brain in humans and other higher animals. The hemispheres are separated by a deep fissure, but connected by a broad band of fibers, the corpus callosum (syn. cerebrum). See also cerebral cortex, left hemisphere, right hemisphere, split-brain subject.
A cerebral hemisphere (hemispherium cerebrale) is defined as one of the two regions of the brain that are delineated by the body's median plane. The brain can thus be described as being divided into left and right cerebral hemispheres. Each of these hemispheres has an outer layer of grey matter called the cerebral cortex that is supported by an inner layer of white matter.
