Document Summary
Now have a tube made of 4 vesicles how did the vesicles develop to a complex cortex it is extremely complex broken down in to steps. 1st thing to get the head end and different segments comes by opposing gradients of morphogens hasn"t been around for very long. Migrates to the surface of the brain and by that stage a new division has occurred neural precrusor brain builds up new neurons migrate up through the radial glia. When the afferent arrive they make synpases where there is neural activity that stabilises a mature pattern of the brain based on experience thalamic regions sends info to the cortex brodmans area is area 17. Monkey between arrows is the visual cortex in the experiment they took out the eye are removed the signals coming from the thalamus no input to that region of the brain that part really shrinks.
