Difference between Cerebral cortex and Pons

Cerebral cortex vs. Pons

The cerebral cortex is the largest region of the cerebrum in the mammalian brain and plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, cognition, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness. The pons (Latin for "bridge") is part of the brainstem, and in humans and other bipeds lies inferior to the midbrain, superior to the medulla oblongata and anterior to the cerebellum.

Similarities between Cerebral cortex and Pons

Cerebral cortex and Pons have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Anatomical terms of location, Brain, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Medulla oblongata, Thalamus.

Anatomical terms of location

Standard anatomical terms of location deal unambiguously with the anatomy of animals, including humans.

Brainstem

The brainstem (or brain stem) is the posterior part of the brain, adjoining and structurally continuous with the spinal cord.

Cerebellum

The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") is a major feature of the hindbrain of all vertebrates.

Medulla oblongata

The medulla oblongata (or medulla) is located in the brainstem, anterior and partially inferior to the cerebellum.

Thalamus

The thalamus (from Greek θάλαμος, "chamber") is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.

Cerebral cortex and Pons Comparison

Cerebral cortex has 216 relations, while Pons has 51. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 2.25% = 6 / (216 + 51).
