Summary
Description Size proportion of mature rodent and non-human primate brain as well as developing and mature human brains fnana-08-00050-g004.jpg |
English:
Size proportion of mature rodent and non-human primate brain as well as developing and mature human brains. Dorsal view of adult mouse (A), rhesus monkey (A), and human brain (B), as well as human fetal brain around mid-gestation (A) and at term (B). (A) The size of human fetal brain already at mid-gestation has reached the size of the adult rhesus monkey brain. Nevertheless, adult rhesus monkey brain is almost 100 times larger than brain of adult mouse. (B) The adult human brain is around 3–4 times larger than newborn brain which size reaches the size of adult chimpanzee brain. Note that the pattern of gyrification in human newborn brain is close to the one observed in adult. The inlet in the middle of the figure is the integrative photo of all brains shown in A and B that demonstrate their actual proportions (the right brain in the upper row of insertion is from fetus at the beginning of third trimester of gestation).
