PediNeuroLogic Exam: Developmental Anatomy - Cerebral Hemisphere Myelination
The areas of the cerebral hemispheres that are first to myelinate are the posterior portion of the frontal lobes, the parietal lobes and areas of the occipital lobes. The frontal and temporal lobes then myelinate and by the end of the second year, myelination of the cerebrum is largely completed, although there are interconnections of the association cortex that are still being myelinated into the 2nd and 3rd decades of life. A neuroscience tutorial focusing on those aspects of the pediatric neu

8.2 Protein shortage
From the mouse-deer to the elephant, plant eaters come in all shapes and sizes. But how do they manage to flourish on a salad diet? In this unit we will examine the special features that allow them to extract their nutrients from leaves, and see how some plants protect themselves from these predators. This is the fourth unit in the ‘Studying mammals’ series.
