Describe the brain of frog.

Explanation

1. The brain is divided into forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain.
2. Fore brain (Prosencephalon) is the anterior most and largest part consisting of a pair of olfactory lobes and cerebral hemisphere (as Telencephalon) and adiencephalon.
3. Anterior part of the olfactory lobes is narrow and free but is fused posteriorly.
4. The olfactory lobes contain a small cavity called olfactory ventricle.
5. The mid brain (Mesencephalon) includes two large, oval optic lobes and has cavities called optic ventricles.
6. The hind brain (Rhombencephalon) consists of the cerebellum and medulla oblongata. Cerebellum is a narrow, thin transverse band followed by medulla oblongata.
7. The medulla oblongata passes out through the foramen magnum and continues as spinal cord, which is enclosed in the vertebral column.
