Brain
The brain along with the spinal cord forms the central nervous system. They help in the processing of information to carry out various functions related to control and coordination.
The brain is divided into three parts- forebrain (cerebrum, thalamus, hypothalamus), midbrain, and hindbrain (cerebellum, pons, medulla oblongata).
The cerebrum is the largest portion of the brain. It occupies the two-thirds region of the human brain. It has a greyish appearance as the cortex region is made of cell bodies of neurons.
