The brain is one of the organs that form the central nervous system, the other being the spinal cord. It is located within the cranial cavity and is formed by several parts - the brainstem, cerebellum, diencephalon and cerebrum. The cerebrum or cerebral hemispheres is the largest portion. Moreover, the cerebral hemispheres consist of several smaller parts known as the cerebral lobes. Overall, six lobes form each hemisphere, including the frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, limbic and insular lobes.
