convolutions

explanation

The convolutions is basically consist of grooves called sulci and raised ridges in between called gyri . A convolution is a curvature of a surface. Picture a fully inflated beach ball. It has no convolutions - it is entirely convex. Now, take out some of the air, and fold the surface of the ball. Each place you make a valley in the surface, you make a convolution

Answer

The answer is Convolutions

Step-by-step explanation

Convolutions are located in the cerebral cortex area of the brain. This area has a wrinkled surface , hence named as Convoluted part or convolution. Convolutions contain ridges and grooves. Deep portions or grooves are called sulci Whereas raised portions or ridges are called gyri. Basically gyri are the specific area of the brain where memories are stored.
