TION OF THE
MAMMALIAN

THE MAMMALIAN BRAIN
•The mammalian brain is responsible for controlling and coordinating
various functions of the body. It is the most complex brain among all
vertebrates.
•The cerebrum, which is the front part of the brain, is especially large in
mammals and controls functions such as memory and learning.
•The brain is composed of neurons, which are the fundamental unit of the
brain and nervous system. The brain receives and sends signals via
neurons to different parts of the body, which helps in regulating
physiological functions and cognitive abilities. The brain also controls
basic autonomic body actions, like breathing, digestion, heartbeat, that
happen automatically.
•The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a fluid that circulates within the skull and
spinal cord, filling up hollow spaces on the surface of the brain. The
primary function of the CSF is to act as a buffer for the brain, cushioning
mechanical shocks and dampening minor jolts. The brain is enclosed
within the skull, which provides frontal, lateral and dorsal protection.
•The brain is responsible for thoughts, interpretation and origin of control
for body movements. The brain is also responsible for emotions, hunger,
sleep, and body temperature. The brain is a complex organ that controls
thought, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, breathing,
temperature, hunger and every process that regulates our body.

•The mammalian eye is a complex organ that is responsible for vision. It is
composed of three main layers: the fibrous tunic, the vascular tunic, and the
nervous tunic.

•The fibrous tunic is the outermost layer of the eye and consists of the cornea
and sclera. The cornea is transparent and helps in refracting light, while the
sclera provides protection to the inner components of the eye.

•The vascular tunic is the middle layer of the eye and includes the iris, ciliary
body, and choroid. The iris controls the amount of light entering the eye,
while the choroid supplies the retinal cells with oxygen and removes waste
products.

•The nervous tunic is the innermost layer of the eye and includes the retina,
which contains photoreceptor cells that convert light into electrical
signals. These signals are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve,
which helps in forming visual images.

•The mammalian eye is capable of distinguishing between different colors

and shades of light. It also helps in maintaining the biological clock of the
human body. The mammalian eye is a remarkable organ that allows us to see
the world around us in all its beauty and complexity.
