A pair of nerves transmitting input signals to the brain from the retina at the back of the eye.

The X-shaped structure formed at the point below the brain where the two optic nerves cross over each other.

The part of the temporal lobe that processes auditory input signals.

The structure in the front of the brain responsible for receiving and processing smells.

The nerve fibers that connect the olfactory bulbs to the temporal lobes.

A region of the brain below the thalamus that coordinates both the autonomic nervous system and the activity of the pituitary, controlling body temperature, thirst, hunger, and other homeostatic systems, and involved in sleep and emotional activity.
