Difference between Medulla oblongata and Raphe nuclei

Medulla oblongata vs. Raphe nuclei

The medulla oblongata (or medulla) is located in the brainstem, anterior and partially inferior to the cerebellum. The raphe nuclei (ῥαφή "seam"Liddell, H.G. & Scott, R. (1940). A Greek-English Lexicon. revised and augmented throughout by Sir Henry Stuart Jones. with the assistance of. Roderick McKenzie. Oxford: Clarendon Press.) are a moderate-size cluster of nuclei found in the brain stem.

Similarities between Medulla oblongata and Raphe nuclei

Medulla oblongata and Raphe nuclei have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Anatomical terms of location, Brain, Brainstem, Nucleus (neuroanatomy), Olivary body, Pons.

Anatomical terms of location

Nucleus (neuroanatomy)

In neuroanatomy, a nucleus (plural form: nuclei) is a cluster of neurons in the central nervous system, located deep within the cerebral hemispheres and brainstem.

Olivary body

In anatomy, the olivary bodies or simply olives (Latin oliva and olivae, singular and plural, respectively) are a pair of prominent oval structures in the medulla oblongata, the lower portion of the brainstem.

Pons

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.
