1. The brain can be divided into three basic units: the forebrain, the midbrain, and the hindbrain.

2. Three layers of membranes known as meninges protect the brain and spinal cord.

3. The two hemispheres are connected by a thick band of nerve fibres called the corpus callosum. The brain halves are able to communicate with each other via this bridge.
