     • The function of brain fissures goes beyond mere organization. They’re like the folds in an origami creation, allowing a larger surface area to fit into a limited space. This increased surface area is crucial because it allows for more neurons to be packed into the cortex, enhancing the brain’s processing power.

   What is a fissure in the brain?

   • A fissure or sulcus is a natural division, deep furrow, or a groove that separates the gyri of the brain. The main groove of the brain is the interhemispheric fissure which divides the brain into two halves. When the external surface is explored from above a fissure divides the oval of the brain into two hemisphere.

   What is the purpose of a fissure?

   • Essentially, the fissure's purpose is to separate the brain into two hemispheres, left and right. Through case studies of brain damage or stroke to either side of each hemisphere, there is evidence that the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body, and the right side controlling the left side of the body.

   What is a longitudinal fissure?

   • The human brain as viewed from above. Median longitudinal fissure visible in red, running top to bottom. The longitudinal fissure (or cerebral fissure, great longitudinal fissure, median longitudinal fissure, interhemispheric fissure) is the deep groove that separates the two cerebral hemispheres of the vertebrate brain.

   What is interhemishpheric fissure?

   • When the external surface is explored from above a fissure divides the oval of the brain into two hemisphere. The deep cleft is called the interhemishpheric fissure In additionthe serpiginous folds and crevices that characterize the outside surface of the barin start to become apparrent as one explores the shape of the brain.

   What are the two parts of the sylvian fissure?

   • The Sylvian fissure can be divided into two parts: superficial and deep. The superficial part is visible on the brain's surface and is divided into a stem and three rami: posterior ramus, anterior ascending ramus, and anterior horizontal ramus.

   What are sulci and fissures?

   • Cerebral sulci and fissures are grooves between the adjacent gyri on the surface of the cerebral hemispheres. By allowing the cortex to invaginate to form sulci and gyri the surface area of the cortex is increased threefold 4. The result is that the surface area of the human cortex is 2200 cm 2, only a third of which can be seen on the surface 4.

   Embryology. Sulci develop at the end of the 3rd fetal month 1. Classification. Sulci can be divided on the basis of function 3: limiting sulcus: some sulci develop between areas differing in structure and function (e.g. central sulcus) axial sulcus: some sulci develop along the axis of a rapidly growing/developing area (e.g. calcarine sulcus)

   The cortex has many folds to increase the surface area of the brain. The bumps or raised ridges on the outer surface are called gyri (singular gyrus) and the grooved indentations are called sulci (singular sulcus). A large, deep sulcus is sometimes also called a fissure.
