Difference between Red nucleus and Ventral tegmental area

Red nucleus vs. Ventral tegmental area

The red nucleus or nucleus ruber is a structure in the rostral midbrain involved in motor coordination. The ventral tegmental area (VTA) (tegmentum is Latin for covering), also known as the ventral tegmental area of Tsai, or simply ventral tegmentum, is a group of neurons located close to the midline on the floor of the midbrain.

Similarities between Red nucleus and Ventral tegmental area

Red nucleus and Ventral tegmental area have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Hindbrain, List of regions in the human brain, Midbrain, Substantia nigra, Superior colliculus.

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.
