Difference between Hearing and Tectum

Hearing vs. Tectum

Hearing, or auditory perception, is the ability to perceive sounds by detecting vibrations, changes in the pressure of the surrounding medium through time, through an organ such as the ear. The tectum (Latin: roof) is a region of the brain, specifically the dorsal (top) part of the midbrain (mesencephalon).

Similarities between Hearing and Tectum

Hearing and Tectum have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Auditory cortex, Auditory system, Brain, Inferior colliculus, Medial geniculate nucleus, Midbrain, Thalamus.

Auditory cortex

The primary auditory cortex is the part of the temporal lobe that processes auditory information in humans and other vertebrates.

Auditory system

The auditory system is the sensory system for the sense of hearing.

Brain

The brain is an organ that serves as the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate animals.

Inferior colliculus

The inferior colliculus (IC) (Latin for lower hill) is the principal midbrain nucleus of the auditory pathway and receives input from several peripheral brainstem nuclei in the auditory pathway, as well as inputs from the auditory cortex.

Medial geniculate nucleus

The medial geniculate nucleus (MGN) or medial geniculate body (MGB) is part of the auditory thalamus and represents the thalamic relay between the inferior colliculus (IC) and the auditory cortex (AC).

Midbrain

The midbrain or mesencephalon (from Greek mesos 'middle', and enkephalos 'brain') is a portion of the central nervous system associated with vision, hearing, motor control, sleep/wake, arousal (alertness), and temperature regulation.

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.

Hearing and Tectum Comparison

Hearing has 106 relations, while Tectum has 24. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 5.38% = 7 / (106 + 24).
