Chapter 32, Problem 1.1A
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The areas of meninges in the sheep’s brain.
Introduction:
The brain is the main organ in all the vertebrates and most invertebrates. It is an important part of the central nervous system. It is the most complex organ present in the human body, which is composed of around 100 billion nerve cells. The brain controls the functioning of all other organs and systems in the body.
