The cerebrum is divided into the two cerebral hemispheres, the right and the left. Each hemisphere is formed of four cerebral lobes: frontal lobe, temporal lobe, parietal lobe and the occipital lobe. Each cerebral lobe consists of the gray matter and the white matter. The gray matter refers to the outer portion and it is made up of the neuron bodies; the gray matter which is also known as the cerebral cortex. The white matter refers to the inner portion and it is white in color since it exist in the region in which axons of cortical neurons pass.
