Explore the intricacies of the human brain with this superior view, revealing the central sulcus - a prominent crease on the brain's surface. This landmark in brain anatomy separates the parietal and frontal lobes, playing a crucial role in sensory processing, particularly touch and position sense. In this colorful illustration, the lobes are labeled for easy identification: the primary somatosensory area (S1) lies within the posterior part of the central sulcus, while the motor cortex resides in the adjacent frontal lobe. The lateral view of the brain further highlights the central sulcus and its significance in brain organization. This artwork serves as a testament to the beauty and complexity of the human brain and its role in our senses.
