Primary neurolation

• In vertebrates , CNS originates from dorsal ectoderm

• CNS forms as a tube during primary neurolation

• Part of ectoderm where fusion occurs becomes neural crest which then forms PNS.

Meninge

• The meninges are the three membranes that envelop the brain and spinal cord

• In mammals, the meninges are the dura mater, the arachnoid mater, and the pia

mater

• The primary function of the meninges is to protect the central nervous system

Dura mater

Falx cerebri and cerebellar tentorium

• Falx cerebri is also known as the cerebral falx, named from its sickle-like form. It is

a large, crescent-shaped fold of meningeal layer of dura mater that descends

vertically in the longitudinal fissure between the cerebral hemispheres of the

human brain

• The cerebellar tentorium is an extension of the dura mater that separates the

cerebellum from the inferior portion of the occipital lobes
