The OCCIPITAL LOBES of the CEREBRAL CORTEX play a crucial role in identifying fundamental elements of the visual environment. Known also as the visual cortex, these lobes are positioned at the rear of the skull.
The cells capable of dividing into neurons or glia, but which are not classified as either, are termed NEURAL STEM CELLS.
